Because the our MEC and the company feel that our Captains have gotten used to a certain economic lifestyle and would be affected by the low pay scale that FO's have endured for some, over 8 years!!!

It's jus absolutely ridiculous how the company treats it's employees. I hope that many quit and leave them trying to figure out how to put planes in the air. I for one am working on my options right now and my prospects are much better outside of aviation.

Wishing luck to my fellow 9E pilots in their transition. If I were a new pilot, I wouldn't apply here...
