Regionals as the pathway to Majors?

If only I could be as equally deluded as people who think that. How many Majors are hiring regional guys and at what % of their class? Answer: few at a low %, in fact most of them that are hired are indeed flow threw. So if you don't have a flow threw, you are SoL. Maybe people that are new or corporate, or prior military believe that crap, but news flash: Age 65 has kept pilots in the right seat of RJs for past 5 years, and there was all the economic problems (housing stocks jobs) and even 9/11 before that.

Someone had a post in the Major forums a while back asking if there were any automatic disqualifiers from getting hired, yes there is......work at a regional. Why on earth would they hire you for more $$ when you work for slave wages flying their aircraft and passengers and colors already?
