[QUOTE=deltajuliet;1672960] A top heavy seniority list of old Captains at a regional seems like a legitimate problem for both airline management and all the guys trying to flow through to a major ASAP. Lower Captain pay at a regional would encourage these guys to move on, improve flow, and enable significantly higher starting wages for the many multitudes of people coming and going at the starting FO pay.QUOTE]

That sounds exactly like what the PSA, RAH, and Eagle contracts were supposed to do,.......except for the part about "enable significantly higher starting wages" part.

Do you really intend to have us believe that if Onstien, Bedford, or Parker, et al, get concessions from the top of their pay scales, they'll replace those same dollars at the bottom of their payscales???

I don't think so.
