Well, maybe I suppose, but it came from the internet!

Generally I work alone. When I have used other pilots I let them set their own rate. I don't let them charge less than $250 a day. All I got from them was essentially a finders fee.

I really don't think that they will raise wages until the thirst for pilots becomes an all out dehydration. They will hold out as long as possible, that's corporate USA for you.

ALTsel, good on you and good on you for sending this to them.

I disagree with those who say it's a wasted effort sending this to recruiters. As someone said, when the recruiters get grief for not filling classes, the more ammo like this they have to pass upstairs to the senior management, the better.

Gang, this is what it'll take to change things. As long as regionals can find fools willing to fly EMB-175 for the poverty level wages, nothing will change.

A very well written letter.

This site needs a "like" button.

Yes, the smaller airliners need to be on the same certificate as the larger parent airline.

Well written, ALTsel, this needs to be sticky'd.
