I have been on reserve the whole time and even as a captain I can't credit enough to make six figures yet. I'm not making this up and am posting this to let it be known that the pay in the left seat can be very subpar for the level of responsibility and cost of our training and education.

We all know ALPA is a broken environment and doesn't represent the airlines as a whole appropriately, but how do we all unite to create a standard in compensation that rewards all appropriately?
