For those pilots that stay in corporate there whole carriers there is no aircraft that commands more money and by somebody coming in at flying it 2/3 price it is the equivalent of being an airline scab that crosses a picket line. This hurts pilots as a whole. The damage done by someone who agrees to much less salries brings the whole industry down. If you want to make 85k go fly a Cl-600/601 it is very similar to an RJ and pays is largely a domestic airplane. Just remember when the airline's hire you back your life goes back to normal meanwhile you leave the carrier corporate guys with a lower standard of living because you sold out. I don't mean this as a personal attack on anyone; I am just trying to keep the standards up on the corporate end.
