I think you misunderstood. I said "non union" carriers. You wouldn't have to worry about the socialists holding you down any more. You could truly negotiate your own worth! Just think, you could offer up a sim demonstration where you could show off your mad A320 piloting skills. Surely there are many 135 and 91 operators who would pay a premium for your skill set.
