hahaha. man you are showing how much you dont know. tell me a regional out there that starts their pilots at more than that? skywest 22 bucks an hour, express jet 23, ASA 23, Comair 22, Republic 23, Eagle 24, Horizon 29, and Pinnacle 21. when our last contract was signed there were no RJ's on property just the "promise" they were coming. so they came up with RJ captain rates (which are right at where everyone elses captain rates were) and blended fo rates for the saab and the rj (hence the reason they are lower than everyone else who operates a strictly all rj fleet or had seperate rates for props and jets).

just to prove my point look at captain pay at any of the other regionals that fly 200's. for example skywest just got a brand spanking new deal and pay raise for the pilots. yet their new pay raise is just 2 dollars more an hour than our captain rates that were signed back in 2000.

so please, take your flaimbaiting uneducated comments somewhere else so i don't have to prove you wrong again.
