You must've avoided JS on NWA.... They have some real tundra sows and they lack charisma

I always seem to be at work flying all the time but my friends that are not pilots make more than I do...............I LOOOVE IT!

Ya know we could push for "Food Court" positions.... I mean when you have 4-5hrs waiting for the next flight, might as well make some extra coin and earn a free lunch!!! Heck, we could start a rotating shift and crew scheduling can add this into our trips!!!

There are plenty of instances in which a plumber should earn more that a regional FO. The line is somewhere between pilot mill SJS wonderboy FO and a senior FO......sometimes even a Captain.

Right now?
Flying with students and looking at the Florida sunrise as we fly up the Daytona shoreline.
Seeing my students grow, looking at their faces when they succeed, and help them when they fail.
Knowing that I earn practically nothing, but still love what I do

edit: I see this is the regional forum, but I always just use the "new posts link" .
I am without boundaries

Other than pay.... none of the rest of that should be a surprise.

you've burned so many bridges you'd be lucky to be a janitor at FexEx by age 55

You must be a very good instructor. Keep at it because it is difficult to find good instructors. I wish I had an instructor as good as you are when I was starting out.

What I like about flying is the sensation of freedom and speed.

Two leg, 7.5 hours of pay on 9 hours of duty time, a real hourly wage, good work rules, with my retirement plan still intact, and being home with the wife and kids every night works pretty well for me....
Taking the family on short day trips in the C172 isn't bad either....

One is fun, the other is work... people need to stop trying to mix the two....

or accept less than prevailing wage because they have SJS....

That is what we have now.... so many with SJS have accepted less than prevailing wage,
that they created a new sub-standard prevailing wage and called it regional...

How are new pilots supposed to get the experience needed to get to a major airline without climbing the ladder? Maybe the major airlines should offer a lottery when hiring pilots? Everyone with a brand new commercial license could put their name in the hat and magically get on with legacy without having to produce a fat logbook. Then they could stick to wage standards that would preserve the industry.
