Heck we will even see some American's do it for less pay but for a chance to fly big metal. (I know a bunch that went to Emirates for that)

So you are saying foreign outsourced pilot labor flying in the USA will not have to meet the same standards as US born pilots flying in the USA...sorry that logic doesnt fly.

Emirates, when you consider the entire compensation package, is a significant upgrade in pay and lifestyle for many US employed pilots.
