I dont only believe it, im 100% confident. Lets be clear, this rule will shut down the regional industry, disrupting air travel all across America, and since 52% of departures in the US are rjs, thats one big disruption. Airlines will lobby, like they have thus far with rest rules and they will get their way. Make no mistake about that. Be certain that airlines will exhaust every imaginable avenue before raising pay to attract pilots, to include raising retirement age again.
