We have to compete with a guy willing to make in the left seat what a guy in the right seat would make at a major. (under a concessionary contract)

I can tell you that my husb was on the street furloughed with many..many... other guys that we know. I am not sure what you would prefer, unemployment or a job? Well.. he chose the job. I agree the pay is not the greatest however it was not much different than the pay he was receiving from F9. VA is a new operation, and just like any other start up we all know you do not start out with excellent wages. I will also put my flowers in one basket to ASSume that pay raises will come in time
