Insurance rules that side of the industry. I would be totally willing to wait longer, gain more experience for larger pay at regionals. My 2 cents
Both sides are true.....
They COULD raise wages but they would NOT.
And it is very hard to go to corporate or even 135 because minimuns are higher than regionals right now. I am surprised how the 135 operators would hold up in this envionment where regionals are dropping mins & still having may be a little hard time finding the kind od people they want....
If one had a choice, Regionals seem to be least of all evils...... the best bet or best combination of airframe & flying hours plus pay in the career building years.....
