I can hardly believe that, though I had heard that US regional guys got low salaries,but $17,100USD???
That's about £8,700 GBP.
Even assuming there is no tax in the US (is there?) that's £725 a month
Is it possible to live on this salary in the US?? I earnt almost twice that instructing on a Cessna in the UK and now I earn over 4 times what US regionals earn for the same job in the UK.

They do it not because they're forced... but because they can. Only when pilots at these small US regionals start leaving abroad en masse or graduating to higher paid US jobs will the companies learn. However, even then will they continue to pay so little because the are always newly trained pilots who are happy to use them as a stepping stone.
Only when people start to think that flying as a career isn't worth it due to high training costs and ever decreasing salaries and conditions will it improve. Unfortunately this is how things go.
