Thats a funny video. And well done. Now here is some real world facts.

You know, it is just AMAZING how riled up you guys get for 10 to 25 bucks per duty hour. Who cares about GoJet, Mesa, Chatauqua, and any other second rate connection carrier. You are ALL making welfare type wages and being overworked beyond a point that any normal employee would balk at. You guys and girls are highly trained pawns who are being exploited by airline managers in a grand divide and conquer scheme that has been approved by ALPA to the detriment of the entire piloting profession.

I did my time at the regionals. I made 18 and 30 bucks an hour in 1987 dollars in brand new BE-1900's. Compute that up to 2006 dollars and tell me what you get. For a 19 seat airplane at that.

Now quit your whining about GoJet, Mesa and other two bit pimp operations, get your flight time and go update your resumes and focus on getting a REAL job. One that pays REAL MONEY and gives you the respect that you deserve.

No offense dude, but the point of the thread is to get a good laugh. So please take your "scab cheerleading" opinions to another thread, you've clearly been out of the loop too long, and clearly unaware of what the freedom A's and Blowjets have done to our industry including the majors (or real jobs as you refer to them).
