Well since our FO's max out at $44/hr, I'm confident it would be raised to the $50's, which is still low, but a lot higher than the $37/hr that an FO makes at RAH. I mean come on!! XJET FO's are at $37/hr on their 3rd year, flying a 50-seater and it still goes up another $7. I think XJET's wages are low, but unless RAH raises the bar we are stuck.

I got something better. How about the Midwest pilots agree to the paycut and take all of Republics flying? Because I guarantee you that is what this will come to.

Hey duck, when can we strike? Study the RLA. Tell our fine former Neg Com Chairman whose now helping the IBT with your negotiations about our scope clause. He'll send you "7 letters in 7 days" about unity and integrity and all that BS.
I vote for Christian Bale to help our negotiators! Just have him go off on Seabury like he did on that lighting director.

standing back doing nothing is just sitting back while the rest of your jobs are outsourced. Strike or not, something has to be done. Put the breaks on, there are other ways to make your point other than to strike. I really hope the midwest guys figure out someway to put the breaks on this. Good luck guys.

If it wasn't RAH, it would be someone else. They're not the only regional looking for more flying. They all are. RAH just happens to already fly the 170s/175s and was ready for the 190 flying. I know a couple Republic pilots and it would kill them to know they were replacing mainline jobs. What are they going to do? Quit? They, just like most pilots at RAH and every other regional, are just using RAH as a stepping stone to build time and move on.
The good jobs are disappearing fast.

like i said, it doesnt have to be a strike to get things noticed. They cant arrest everyone if they decide to get the swine flu around the same time Just saying...
Its either DO nothing and watch the rest of the jobs get flushed or do SOMETHING while they still can.
