Why ask mainline pilots what regional pilots are worth ?
Perhaps it's time for regional pilots to stand up for themselves, take control of their destiny and not promote subservience in their existance.
I agree regional pilots need to stand up for ourselves. But that doesn't mean that mainline pilots don't have a stake in what regional pilots get. Scope clauses help mainline pilots by adding pilots on the bottom of the mainline seniority list. Pilots should stand up for pilots. Get over this whole me versus the other pilot group bull that's been in this industry for way too long.Originally Posted by eaglefly

As our regional partners have their flying outsourced to cheaper operators, they will understand.
Sorry, you asked for honest.

Agreed, from a regional gear thrower. The only thing the creation of regionals have succeeded in doing is pitting pilot groups against one another. Dividing everyone as much as possible has always been management's goal, and the pilots have bitten it. Now is the time to spit it back out in their face.Originally Posted by flap

I think you're missing the boat on this one. Anything your airline sells a seat on should be flown by a mainline. Period.
