The more regionals take cuts, the worse off the regional pilot profession becomes. But the bigger the divide between major and regional pay becomes, the more pressure turns to the majors to take cuts as well. Only collectively can we reverse the trend and close the gap that exists within our profession. Stand together and say no; if you plan on staying and especially if you plan on moving on.

Apparently alpa national didn't believe this. They blessed the pos contract that psa got. What was moak's logic behind that? He seems to think lining the majors pockets will result in more money for mainline pilots to negotiate. I wish he would consider that paying regional pilots more would put pressure on the majors to finally put some regional flying back at the majors.

Moak isn't thinking long term. If you are at a regional and under forty, this is your career! Fight for it because a yes vote will effect your future. This effects regionals, majors, corporate.
Shiny new jets are cool. You can brag to your friends that you fly a big jet, but what would they say if you told them what you earned to fly that cool new big jet?
After you first leg, when you fart in your shiny new slave ship seat making 20 bucks an hour, it won't seem so shiny and cool anymore.
