As a "service oriented" business, I find it interesting that management keeps giving the passengers EXACLTY WHAT THEY DON'T WANT! I don't know of too many folks who like flying RJ's, turboprops, or just commuters in general. (This is NOT a slam on the pilots who fly them............I've been there and done that.) But we continue to hear excuse after excuse of why we keep expanding the commuter network at the major's expense. My take on this? If our management wants to keep expanding the regional network, they need to be paid regional compensation. No wonder we're in the situation we're in.
