You’re exactly right. I wouldn’t consider any of the regional carriers ‘career airlines’ anymore; and that is how management wants it. One of Comair’s main issues when it comes to cost is the high number of senior captains making the ‘big bucks’. I heard from one of the captains that attended the CEO’s of the cockpit meeting with Selvaggio flat out said we are top heavy with pilot salaries. I wouldn’t be surprised if we start seeing payouts being offered to get some of the senior guys to retire early.
