There is more to a regionals reputation than it's pay rates and contract. It's culture, pilots, professionalism...just to name a few in addition to pay rates and work rules.
Why did the rates need to be split? Why is it so important that a CRJ900 pilot make more money than a SF340 pilot? Seriously?
At XJ seniority did not come into play for chosing a plane. I was put in the Saab because I was a 'high-time' FO as they put it, and they wanted the 'low-time' FOs in the 900. So, with that rationale...I have more experience so I get less pay?
I know things have changed, but at the regional and FO level....pay rates should be the same. And, second year pay should never be below $35.
