So now that the damage has been done, with regionals flying mainline aircraft, how do we fix this? The regionals are slowly also becoming career airlines. Which is a bad thing. Senior guys just stick around until they retire. (and I really can't blame them) But they are really against having their mainline counterparts take the RJ flying, anything bigger than 50 seats. I think that would be awesome. I really want to get the hell out of my regional sooner than later and have a real career, but it looks like I'm going to be stuck for a while. Upgrade is years away for me.
