You missed the whole point. What is the pay difference between year 10 and year 1 FO pay on the md 80 at big d?

Say delta takes all the regional flying in house tomorrow. You'd probably still fly the regional planes as long as you would have been employed at a regional, maybe 5-10 years if you're a civilian. But now when your number comes up to flying something bigger they pay you that 5-10 year rate for the bigger plane vs hiring you when they need you to fly the bigger plane at year one. Also , the longer they make us stay at the regionals , is that many less years of capped out pay. I say burn it down
