Ok. Check back with me in ten more years and let me know how it worked out.

Overall, another metric that won't change. The guy who is voting at that major airline for new work rules. Him/her taking a pay cut so that they can subsidize their own company pilots to fly a 50 - 100 seat jet (over the price currently paid at a contract airline).... not going to happen.

Promise of new, bigger jet will trump that every time.

Plus

"I'm not in it for the money"

Equals

Status quo

You're not fighting a company. Your in a battle with fellow pilots.
