But if we do, that's fine too, I for one wolnt be starting over again in the right seat at another regional.

One thing I've learned while observing this crazy industry over the years is that literally anything can happen. I mean, who would have ever thought Commutair would have pulled that rabbit out of their a** (good for those guys). I now have given up trying to predict what will happen and have surrendered myself to the fact that anything is possible.

I fully agree. I have always said I will not make a lateral move- this was before the $40 1st yr pay we are seeing now. Still, it is my last resort, and I mean LAST- I'd rather flight instruct back home, fly some Merlins and King Airs while updating my app and waiting for a LCC than play this BS shell game that is the regionals.
