Good post. It's not that there's no money in the Regionals....It's how it's dispersed. My CEO takes in 1.4 million a year, The CFO makes 875k but they pay our first year FO's under 18k. It's BS. Pilots need to take action and stand up for what we deserve. And ticket prices need to be raised to change this. The public needs the mindset Flying is a luxury not a right. The industry will never change with the no balls generation we've become who just rolls over and takes it from management. Welcome to low paying regional wages for life................
