Do you mean you're emailing Forbes and telling them pilots don't make so much, or do you mean you're "allowing" pilots to be paid less (by working for lower pay) and thus resulting in "airline pilot" being removed from that list at a later date?

There are far fewer of us underpaid regional airline scum, than major airline guys who ARE making that kinda money.

I know it's hard to believe, cause everyone (or most other pilots at least) we know makes crap money (for those of us in the regional world).

Stats are stats unfortunately. I believe it.
