How about we don't get into the "zomg, my regional is better than yours!" debacle. You may make a buck more than one guy, but his company may not be furloughing this week. You may be paid a higher per diem rate, but the other guy may make more in early trip pay. You may fly a jeeeeet with an autopilot, the other guy may be loving the hand flying.
Does it really matter, at the end of the day you still work at a regional. i mean c'mon, do we really have to whip um out and measure here? I really don't want a bunch of people to laugh at me, so lets try to keep it in our pants.
Again, if you come here to say "your airline sucks, my regional is soo much better, you're bringing the industry down!!!111!" you need to take a look at yourself too. Unless you're at a major with an awesome scope clause, pretty much every regional sucks and isn't doing much good for the industry.
Get a grip guys.
Oh and for everyone talking about Silver getting other airlines dropped routes, I leave you this.
