Exactly! It is my hope that pilots will opt to go work for companies that have good work rules and treat pilots well so that the ones that disrespect their work force, by asking for concessions, will struggle to staff their airplanes. In the current environment, management teams are going to fight over who gets the few pilots that are available. I hope ASA/XJT stand strong like Eagle did and vote down a concessionary contract and work to get improved pay and work rules. If they do that then maybe those few pilots looking for a regional job will have a desire to go work there cause they will be paid more and have a better QOL than so many of the other regionals. Are there people who don't agree with that?
Yes because you forgot to take into account if you don't fly an RJ with wing mounted engines you probably won't be taken seriously at an interview with a major. That's valuable log book time.

+1, paxhauler. There were worse comparable contracts, but, IMO, I wouldn't have counted PSA as one to 'help' the CPZ arbitration cause.

Congrats to all the PSA folks. Hopefully this additional flying cuts the time off it'll take you to get to a major. No one should be *****!ng about the pay scales/longevity as no kne should be at a Regional longer than 3-5 years...going FORWARD. The last 10 years was an anamoly. From now on any FO stuck in 4th yr pay is there by choice or ineptitude. Anyone else that doesn't have a degree, record or skill set to pass an interview needs to exit the career field.
While your peers at the other Regionals may laugh and call you names, your career earrings will outpace thiers by a couple hundred grand. Is that worth a lousy contract now? YES!
