If your before tax take home first year at min guarantee is less than $2800, I can see where a bit of comparison between F9 and a regional can be made. Guys making over 6 figures as long term regional captains with good schedules would be taking a huge financial and QOL penalty for a good couple of years.

However for an RJ FO there really should not be any comparison's made.

The APC pay scale for AA shows $40 an hour first year. At 71 east guarantee, that's 2840. Guess AA is just like a regional too.

Unless there's some "trigger date" for the new AAG rates, I'm pretty sure your statement could only be valid in the past tense.

UPS might be the only one it could currently apply to.

You could lump CAL, UAL, and NWA in the 2007-2008 hiring era of statement that would apply in a past tense also.

Yeah, I'm not sure what the new rates at AA are, I should have specified that. But, the point stands. Legacy, majors, cargo etc don't compare to regional.

Unemployment benefits are only paid when your employment ended by no fault of your own. If your fired... nothing. I believe it starts after your vacation time is paid out and the week or two waiting period passes anyway. Save your breath and get ready for ground school.

Hey Yabadaba save your own CP breath for talking down to your pilots, and not ours!

Haha.... just trying to help a fellow pilot avoid an epic fail as they slam the door on the way out.
