I remember back in the day, majors got upset when regionals first flew pressurized cabins. Then it was turboprops that upset everybody. The advent of the CRJ outraged many. The 70 seat RJ did the same. The CRJ900 sparked some outrage over changes in scope limitations. Now the 100 seater EMB190 is causing a stir. To those who choose to throw stones towards RAH, take a look in the mirror. If you're flying anything that I mentioned above, you're also a part of the problem. Tough to admit, but you must.
So what fight are you fighting here?

I want nothing more than to work at a major, that is fading away rather quickly. My years at a major are being eroded. With that said, while I am at a regional, I'm glad i'm with a company that I can make a decent living and have decent work rules.

Perhaps when I was in junior high, you should have been working on locking in a better scope clause in your contract.
