Welcome to the world of aviation, and you are experiencing what has been predicted by many since regionals did the same undercutting of the majors. Welcome to the party.
Regionals were created because mainline pilots gave up scope. Why did they give up scope? For more pay.
Now 20 years later it is biting them on the oss.
I don't want 90 seaters at the regional level. Or 70 for that matter. Hell get rid of the 50's.
10-15 years at a regional only to start at the bottom again at some major. Not my idea of a good career. I didn't start this business, I'm just along for the ride.
