It won't make a difference, the company will simply say "ok the idiots got it out there system, now back to our regularly scheduled program".
Bottom line regional pilots are too young and dumb to even know what they are talking about. Most of you guys see this as a "problem" but the truth is this has been going on for 30 years. The only thing different is a new batch of pilots to say "hey this sucks". You'll soon be through it too and there will be a new batch of pilots coming in saying "hey we should do something about this".
Bottom line, pilots like to complain and b*tch alot but when it comes time to actually do anything meaningful, thats for someone else to do.
But don't worry, you are all going to get your big raises soon. And it has nothing to do with all your complaining, the union, or what your worth. It will simply boil down the lack of pilots and airlines having to compete for your talents. So when it comes, don't think you or alpa did anything at all special.
