If you take $25/hour, after that technical training for an entry position, I'd say it is fair pay, or you wouldn't have taken it.

This thread ties it all together. 500 hour CFIs looking to get into the airline business, happy to get anything; while 6 year F/Os complain they aren't paid like mainline F/Os. The 6 year guy doesn't realize that the CFI is the cause of his pay issue.

Lastly, the killer--blaming the mainline guys for giving up scope and working til 65 for being greedy guys causing their stagnation. Seniority is just that--SENIORITY, the old guys feast, the young wait. And, if the mainline guys hadn't been forced into "giving up" (see BK 101), the RJ guys would not have benefited from the last ten years RJ hiring boom while the mainlines furloughed, shrank.
