"Condescending".....and if you don't know what that means, it means to talk down to.

*in condescending tone*

Awfully harsh for a good upstanding Catholic like yourself! By the way, did you buy those 190's to haul your 15 kids around?

Quite the opposite actually. I'd rather bring up the worst case scenario in hopes that most Delta pilots get as interested in it as you are. I don't want to work at my POS regional any longer than I have to.

I can't believe this thread is still going and that anyone here has taken anything associated with it seriously at all. The debating of code share limitations, where the flying would go, etc shouldn't even take place this so far out there it's too funny. If there were rumors flying around we'd hear them from our own guys first. We have a few Brazilian locals that spend time down there and go there to pick up each new aircraft. They speak directly with EMB. Not to mention that RJET has flying in shaky territory. Why would BB purchase additional 190s when he could simply pull a few 175s from other locations? I can't believe people are taking any of this serious. Might as well throw in a few 727s and 75s while you're at it since the leasing company has those too!

Leave then. I'm confused why you'd have"mainline planes for regional wages" as your comment but then show up daily to fly them.

BS. All that while 2/3 of Midwest pilots are out of a job. You seem to be getting a lot of BS thrown at you EvilMonkey. It's no wonder though this is just a preview of whats to come for the whole industry the next decade.

well toolbox, i said "seem to think" because it wasn't clear. below is his quote to clarify. thanks for chirping in. i hope the chip on your shoulder gets better.:rolleyes:

thanks for clarifying, there are a large number of guys keeping these issues on the front burner so further degradation of OUR industry doesn't continue. This needs to be EVERYONES fight not just DAL pilots, Unless of course its one's goal is to work for a regional their entire career at sub par wages :eek:

I just posted the information that I investigated. Don't confuse this with enthusiasm to see Republics airplanes displacing the mainline pilots that rightfully deserve it. If you want to read between the lines, go to Flight Aware. Otherwise, don't kill the messenger.

Its more highlighting the size of today's regional jet, rather than regional jet pay.

I've found many mainline pilots don't realize that the e175 has the same range and speed as an A320, carrying half the people with half the burn.

That's all.

Now I'm positive I have no regrets of getting out of 121 and resigning from RAH before I probably would have gotten dumped. And everyone still banters back and forth about this stuff.
