The industry has changed and until the pilots that make up the ALPA, USAPA and APA unions change their scope you cannot blame RAH pilots for this.

RAH pilots: all we ask is that you fight tooth and nail for good wages on your 170s and 190s.

You're right, it's not the length of flights...it's the pay. Or more appropriately the LACK THERE OF!
