It's freakin business. Mainline pilots who were too good to fly small planes 30 years ago started this mess and young pilots trying to find a reasonable job are now blamed for it, whine about that.
I wasn't to good to fly worn out Turbo Props and pistons twins 30 years ago. I flew for thousands of hours in them to build time and experience where I could get a job flying bigger and better equipment. Up until the mid 90's, you had to have around 5,000 hours to even be considered for a National or Major. Twenty years later, a regional run by a complete and total scumbag, buys my company, guts it, and locks me out of a job and replaces me with willing minions who undercut not just me, but the entire industry. Oh well, back to filling for unemployment.
