Do you consider JetBlue or US Airways REGIONALS?
They fly E190!
E190 are not considered regional jets in 2009. It's the Republic pilots responsibility to make sure professional pilots are paid the JetBlue pay scale (+/-) for the new 100 seat domestic jet market.
Why do you think Midwest/Delta/TPG is sending the flying our way?
answer... They hope you will fly it for regional payscales vs. the Midwest pilots who will not do it!
