Aero crew is useless. TMZ of the airline world. RPA FO's don't make 19k/year.
Even if they did. 19k/year working 10 days a month with the ability to keep health and travel benefits is something every regional/airline that will potentially furlough should consider. PSA management just rejected their union's furlough mitigation plan. I'd be willing to bet those PSA FO's would take what Republic passed in a heart beat.
