Dash trash is right, (he can't spell worth a damn) but he is right about the pay at Horizon. I think top pay is about 115/year. Not too bad for a RJ. Of course I think they should be making 250 but I am living a delusion.

As far as, "Where is the hiring?" I don't know. You see, "thinking weakens the team" and "I don't have the big picture." For these reasons I don't ask why anymore. I think we are woefully understaffed. Reserves are flying 80 per month fairly often and are being abused by schedulers. (IMO)

A working theory is that the company is still trying to hammer out a contract acceptable to the pilots (yeah right) and will staff more appropriately when they know the staffing levels needed. We'll see.
