Seagull,

Everything you say is correct and factual.

Yep, no Flow though to the LLCs etc.

Pay is pretty much bang on. BUT it doesn't include bonuses. The bonuses are handed out because the enterprise agreement allows for them to be handed out yet the agreements cant waiver from the base wage. (that's my understanding) IN some carriers there are yearly retention bonuses.

Yep on 45-50k it would be hard to eek out an existence. But, if you have a working partner.... it is do-able, esp considering the COL is cheaper.

You are also right about E3 regional numbers, to date I count six, being, Peidmont, Skywest, Commutair, PSA, Transstates and go Jet. You are absolutely right... check out Airline pilots Central.

Again, where are you flying? I only ask as it provides context to your opinion.

So, I agree with your facts but not your conclusions.
