Even better would be if captain pay stayed the same and our greedy mainline partners paid more to increase FO pay to narrow the gap.








You do realize that pretty much every captain started out as a first officer right? How is our "perspective" lacking??
Because a lot of regional captains upgraded in 18 months to two years, while some were even hired as street captains. That's why you lack perspective.
