The mins are going to go down across the board @ every regional airline. particularly once the majors start hiring again. An old captain once told me. You know how you pick your first airline? The first one that offers you a job. The next question: Do you know how you know if you picked the right one? Answer: If its still around 30 years from now. When it boils down to it, it doesn't matter who we fly for @ a regional level. As long as we are gaining experience, and not screwing other people over. @ the core most regionals are the same. Minor differences in work rules, bennefits, etc. But they all A. under pay, B. QOL sucks, and C. treat there pilot group badly. Look @ your time @ a regional like its a residency... do your time and move on. Suck it up. It could always, and I do mean always be worse. You could not have a job. And there could be none available else were. i am not saying that we shouldn't fight for what we deserve though, namely higher pay work rules etc. But i am saying that we should be grateful for what we do. For years, people would have killed to have a seat @ any airline..

just my 2 cents.
