Default Pay More

I am sure that if you asked any passenger they would say that they would like it if pilots were paid more. However when they are at home and shopping for tickets it is the cheapest price that they are loyal to.

Besides all that pilots like Sully keep showing up for work. Why should any airline do anything other than to keep putting pressure on lowering wages and benefits. There is just no way to prove that we need better paid pilots when we already enjoy a fantastic safety record.

There is just no evidence that we need better paid pilots for a safer national air travel system.
