So why is it that the pilots are the only ones tied to seats? If that aircraft allows the company to make more money then we should get a cut. The liability is the same, the risk is the same. If a 100 seat aircraft goes down it'll be the same exposure to the company as if 137 seat aircraft crashes. Pilots prevent that from happening. Mechanics also. So neither should gt a pay cut.
thats my opinion.
A 172 CFI should get wide body CA rates. It's only fair.
