So why do you think every US carrier ex-amr filed chapter11 in last decade? Why pilots being headlined as a major factor in amr woes today?
Regards your point on pay - your point is valid, $200k doesn't seem put of whack for the responsibility (but it's probably more than 90% of the population and more than many surgeons) but I don't think that needs either a cap nor protecting. The Market decides surely?? I guess what is difficult to understand is why time and again it's another airline issue with staff at the centre. If it's that bad why do it?

With respect sir, envy isnt a factor in my post. Im a pilot and punter that just gets sick and tired of the same headline - oh and I guess so is the guy who owns the equity (the people who along with those holding AMR debt finance the show) - maybe AMR stock is in the pension scheme of lots of regular and not so regular people?
