Do you honestly think AW is assigning captains 4 day trips with 15 block hours and 4 hour sits in CLT to make their lives easier? Silly Carl...

Cutting everyone back to minimum guarantee is not acceptable. For the average captain, you are taking about $800 a month out of their bank accounts.

If you were at a major you would be making more per hour, so staying at a regional is a pay cut too?

Premium pay was also part of the contract for the place I chose to work, meaning I also chose that place because I could make more than guarantee.

Then these airline should stop advertising guarantee, because by your logic they are actually supposed to be paying you much more.
I like this line of thinking, I think I will apply it to my tax refunds , they should go up every year.
