Don't worry Mr. RJ, ALPA raising your dues, Obama raising your taxes and health care, inflation, oil prices and regional paycuts combined with more time on the road and increased days at work will soon have you unable to feed a family of four as well.

"Eagle to hire 600+ in 2013"
Just heard from a good source that after 5 months, it's LESS than 100 pilots hired. That's WITH the $5000 bonuses. I still stand by my prediction of a devastating tsunami crashing into the regionals due to little interest in flying for regional carriers as new-hires. In 12-18 months, I predict outright liquidation for some regionals who simply cannot maintain a going concern due to lack of crews. It takes years to cultivate a pilot for entry level and the well is BONE DRY. The idiots running the industry have been whistling past the cemetery for too long.
The regional industry is ****ed.
Like I said............ popcorn, cold beer, a comfortable chair and high ground. The screaming chaos of drowning airline executives splashing around and crying for their mommies when it hits full force will be like something out of a Hitchcock movie. The wave is so close they should be able to feel the spray and they still have no clue. Poor little airline executives............RIP.
