Oh I remember. And it’s more than $20,000 more. Try double that. I had to literally save money in order to afford the first year pay cut at a regional. And then commute to reserve to fly mostly 200s all summer long and every single turn was a plane swap and no gate. I get the senior-manning is a raw deal, but not that long ago people were FOs for 6-7+ years before they had the opportunity to upgrade.
