If the retirement continues at the majors and the regionals are hurting for pilots (which they are not at the moment), then the cap won't matter to 80% of us.

As a gambling man, the odds are that the planes will come and the stagnation will cease and honestly if eagle MEC hadn't voted it down, I would've voted yes as well.
