Oh wait...you mean it doesn't make any sense right? |

Oh wait...you mean it doesn't make any sense right? I’ve seen the same mistakes made by all seniority levels but yes let’s give more to the senior pilot because he is senior. |

I thought we paid our dues prior to Delta? I thought we were made “partner” when we came here? We need to pay our dues more? How much better is a 12 year FO than his 2-3 year coworker? 50% more, 30%?

Medical interns do substantially different work from residents, fellows, and others. New hire lawyers do substantially different work from senior partners.
A junior pilot does the exact same job as a senior pilot. Newer medical and legal professionals work FAR harder than their senior peers for far less money. Far more so than in this industry. I knew one (now) senior and respected physician who told me that in her intern year she spent something like nine DAYS away from the hospital, all for a pittance in salary. Sometimes that's just life in this world, far beyond this industry. I don't think you'll get much traction from a position that states that a new hire should make the same as a current 777A. |

Set the 321 as the floor for pay and you can kiss the 100 seat airframes goodbye at the mainline.
This is not nearly as hard as you make it once you throw out the old concept of bigger pays more as your baseline. |

You gave a good description of why a Captain gets paid more than an FO or why a 5yr FO is paid more than a 1 yr FO, but failed to connect the dots between a 5 and 25 years in the same seat. Besides, do you really want to provide decades of pay raises to pilots who camp out in the right seat. We have enough senior WB FOs, there is no need to further encourage the behavior with LBP.
