If regional pay was $500k/year there would be countless number of college students who would change their major to Aviation and even older people in other fields who would take out loans or mortgage their homes to pay for training and maybe even buy their own plane to get to 1500 hours in order to make $500k/year at a regional. How is that not obvious to you?
What if the regionals paid $2 million/year? Do you still think that wouldn't happen?
