... Air Conference members should be held accountable for manslaughter, or if they fully understand what they have done, murder.
Definition: Murder - the killing of another human being under conditions of malice aforethought.
I don't think I'd be so bold as to call their actions "murder". Manslaughter isn't even a close charge. Just because airlines are cutting costs doesn't mean they are acting with malice. Especially since they train their pilots according to FAA mandated standards.
Overall, I thought it was a good post. We do need to keep the pay higher to continue attracting quality people to this profession. But you lost me at murder.

... If he were alive today, Johnny Carson would not be flying Delta or any other airline. He would not be able to find any well-paid happy pilots....
What about SWA? Pretty happy and well paid from what I understand.
