No one suggested that it was "the norm", but it does happen. I personally know a guy who just flowed and was making ~450k at one of the wholly-owned AA regionals as an LCA. And no one suggested that an Omni pilot could "plan" to make 450k at a regional, but that, too, has happened, it seems.
Honestly all of the gymnastics going on in this thread to excuse a scumbag move are embarrassing.
