I my have to fly for peanuts but those yahoo's will be on the street because they cannot read the loop holes. Well, since they know everything, then they will experience everything-furlough.

I'll tell you what. Since you're so concerned, why not give up some of your pay. Write a letter to your CEO and say that you're taking a 50% pay cut.

For the responsibility the CA has, he/she should get paid well in excess of 100k, never mind that it's a CRJ. I also believe first year pay should be in the 40k range- increasing to 60k by year 2...but that would be in a perfect world.

Out of curiosity, which seat are you in, and what do you think you SHOULD be paid?

That right there was pretty damn funny, I don't care who you. Now off to pre-flight that damn ATR. I'm sure it's leaking something.

Most of the newhires won't be able to vote on this TA.

I also don't care what the spreadsheet says about minimum fleet guarantees. Take it from a former Comair guy, what you need are minimum block hour guarantees. Otherwise you could see your minimum fleet parked right outside the crew room windows with no plans to fly them.

^^what he said, esp to Eaglefly as well, THESE 600 NEW GUYS CAN NOT VOTE!!!!! Yet we are the first to loose everything.

Get it tight then.:D

You aren't the only one.

His grammar is pretty atrocious.

I just have to wave the BS flag here. The best I could do breaking my butt with a good chuck of OT and playing the loopholes in the contract was about 125K/year as a topped-out captain @ 18 year pay. I didn't commute and still had a life. Talked to even a few guys that made more then me, but they also flew OT, did IOE and one was the mother of all scammers and made over 170K.

You say you're doing 140K with NO OT ?

Sorry, I just can't buy that.

Obviously his nav lights are burnt out.

...and apparently so is his ability to understand what's happening.
