I dont know what amazing airlines you guys have flown for at the regionals that have all these great pilots.

In all the regional airline flying I've done, which has been quite a bit, I've come across dozens of pilots I wouldn't want to fly with before. Scary pilots. Unprofessional pilots. Do-nothing pilots. Know-nothing pilots.

Regional airlines have a lot of great pilots but the two ends of the seniority list seem to be pretty scary. The top is full of pilots who couldn't cut it anywhere else thanks to personality/skill/motivation/etc issues and the bottom has a significant (but is not full of) number of pilots who think that their aviation degree and freshly minted jet type rating make them God's gift to aviation and they know all and can do all.
