Tarik,

there is one little problem with leaving/changing jobs as a pilot and that is -> Seniority. There is no other profession I know of, where one starts all over again when changing jobs to another Airline.

You could be a commander of the Space Shuttle and change jobs, you still would start as the Junior F/O with payscale one.

I guess changing the seniority by using the date of the first line check on the Aircraft category / type you fly could be a start to reward experience. Unfortunately, it would be foolish to believe, that this will ever happen. The large unions are usually partial to specific Airlines.
