cxorcist:
"I would GLADLY fly a regional jet for the rest of my career on the proper package commensurate with my experience and ability, which is about $250-300K per year, good benefits, and a decent rostering system from the base of my choice. Fantasy? Of course, because as you say, the legacy carriers will just bring all that flying in house, as they should have done 20+ years ago. The days of making big money off the backs of poorly paid pilots are coming to an end, at least in the US."
Any yet you did fly for a regional at what, $15-20k a year? And you were one of the first SOs to come to CX, maybe even one of the contract ones, if I recall your bar talk correctly. And now that you have all that SJ time under your belt you look with disdain on those behind you trying to do the same. Just how have you helped the pilot cause?
