Paying what you can hold not what you fly?
Has this idea ever been visited at the major level? I know some of the Euro carriers do this and I don't see why it couldn't be applied here.
For those that don't know, the concept is that pilots would be paid by the number of aircraft in each category in seniority order. For example, it would allow the number 1 guy to fly a e190 and get paid as if he were flying the 330. The main advantage is that people would not have to destroy their bodies flying on the backside of the clock in their old age to be able to make more money.
