Did you ever go to college? The reason I ask this is because if you have paid any attention to principles of a free market economy, you would have heard of a little term that we who think call....here is its:

Supply and Demand.

Three years ago, you needed 1200TT/100ME at every regional. Now that the regionals are growing again, they need pilots and the only ones available are the lower time guys.

I got hired at 900TT/234ME...I don't think that a guy with 1000 hours is all that more qualified than myself.

Do you think that there are pilots out there with 2500TT as a CFI that are just waiting to go to an airline until they pay more? Why do these 500 hour guys go to the airlines? It's because it pays more than a CFI.

Dude, wake up. If you're going to get published and many people read your peice, you better be ready for a blunt force of pilots that will be knocking on your door looking for a job.
