Individual pilots go work for regionals because it’s what’s best for them at that moment. One pilot refusing to participate in the system isn’t going to move the needle and they’ll just hurt their own career. A large group of pilots banding together to try and change the system to advance the pilot profession can have an effect though. A grouping, or a compact, or… what’s the word I’m looking for… oh, a union.
Perfectly said.
