Which is part of the problem. We have guys that say "Get that flying now and we will deal with payrates etc later" and then we have guys complaining that the E-190 pay rates are too low and how we screwed that up.
So which is it? We aren't going to have it both ways. I see the problem being that we are still below C2000 payrates, and this does not even take into account inflation. Fix that first, then deal with E-175 being on the property.
