I think RAH pilots have been getting a lot of flack recently, I agree its disgraceful they are flying those planes for that pay, but MANAGEMENT of RAH & Midwest are to blame, it will be interesting to see what RAH pilots do. If they sit there idle and fly that plane at the current pay scales, that will be disappointing, but I wouldn't write em off just yet, give it some time lets see if they negotiate proper pay rates.

anyway no point in trying to guess where the industry is going, if you have a "non-aviation" opportunity go for it and re-visit aviation when that opportunity presents itself, may be quite a while
