I for one got into this game before 9/11 and expected to fly small turboprops for a few years and then move on. I didn't set out to "disrespect" or devalue the profession. I just followed the conventional career path wisdom and look where it got me. Why don't the legacy pilots try to force their regionals onto their list? That's where they should have been all along, at least since the day the first RJ rolled off the line.

I agree with this... on a side note, you disrespect the profession by not joining it... two ALPA drives... and other union drives too... while you may have voted yes yourself, you are tied to your collective choice.
I chide my fellow pilots for relaxing scoping... hating the regional pilots after they created them... ?? Legacy pilots need to go thru the painful recovery of fixing the mistakes they made... and with most regionals being ALPA it will be easier to broker a deal....
I even propose that regional airlines dissolve and mainline take all the flying... even the POS Bros you guys fly... AND those regional pilots come to mainline with longevity credit... except for Skywest pilots. For not being ALPA you guys can interview and start all over.... but not to worry... you guys get other bennies for free, why not that...
