Quote: Why can't they both keep their cheap outsourced flying and give everyone seniority numbers. They would have plenty of applicants at the door that would gladly fly RJ's at low rates keeping the feed staffed and all these guys can bid to fly the larger aircrafts when their seniority can hold it...
How else would mainlines hold any pilots at these express units with the amount of movement that could be around the corner?
Because the majority of mainline pilots think regional pilots are a bunch of misfits with DUIs, no degrees, checkride failures, and no service to their country. They feel regional pilots are not properly vetted, and if they want to be Mainline Pilots they need to go through the interview process and earn it. Like they did.
