Not flame, just stating the fact that regional pay @ starting levels is too low. I was there and I know it; I also know I was single, paying rent, with no responsabilities. Today married, mortgage, and kids I could not take that job, waiting tables will make you upper 20s right away.

I agree. I am not talking about the right to be hired. I am talking about the right to flow down into all the seats of these aircraft.
