Heck,
Maybe I should change my tune? What is your minimum?
Would you PAY the airline for the chance to work there?
Do you work at pinnacle?
As for the multiple posts, I had 2 windows open at once and posted on the wrong thread(was meant for this one), so I deleted the one on the other thread. It was only up for maybe 20 seconds b4 I deleted it, so...
My point is it doesn't matter what pay cut you take, you're basically working for free at pinnacle already. Paycuts won't save pinnacle.
All the other regionals will be killing for pilots within a year or two. If you and other regional pilots hold out IMO, you can either get hired at another regional with a zippy upgrade to CA, or get hired at DL/UA/SWA. You can't help a regional airline with a broken business model.
Actually I have the same opinion for the guys at AA. Their pilot costs are basically industry neutral at this point, even with their pensions. In about a year, they will be at the bottom of the industry even without cuts, so there's no point in concessions there either.
