If the RJs are doing the same flying as the 737 or 320s why don't they get paid the same as the Big Boys? Why don't they have the same upgrade pass percentage as the Big Boys? Why don't they have the same contract as the Big Boys?
RJ pilots are different and everyone knows it including the RJ pilots and the Training Dept.
They also all come from one continent. You may not find that palatable but there it is....
With those replies you both have the balls to criticize people flying in the US? You can PM me your staff number to put 1000 points to avoid flying with you
BTW show me the pass rate of the RJs and your claim about only RJ pilots failing. They don't get the same contract as big guys because they are trapped in a bureaucratic system full of BS and unions, nothing to do with skills or actual flying. For your own information the 320/737 guys in the states do the same EXACTLY flying as the RJ ones. Look Southwest,United,US airways,Virgin, JeBlue etc etc.
As far as the Poor RT you should blame the FAA standards and the training schools not the pilots themselves . Listen to Fedex,United,Delta many guys have the RT habits of flying in US airspace and they fly big boys too.
