What are you getting at Duck? At 12yrs a RAH Cpt makes a dollar more than a 12 year US air pilot. RAH Cpt tops at 119 an hour, Airways tops at 95 year ten. Keep in mind there are very few ten year captains at US Air.

Don't forget that RAH payscale includes a 99 seat 190/5.

For what its worth I'd rather of seen 170's at mainline. I'd rather of never seen crj900's. You and I have Zero control over any of that, never did. Airways pilots IMHO should of NEVER given up mid atlantic. They did not have much choice with Mesa 900's on the block.

What erks me is that everyone is crying effiency yet air canada makes money on 175's. Enough to pay there pilots properly! 3rd year FO $60. Capt $114 And we are talking about an industry leading contract, we'll see.
