Question:

Would you support a B pay scale at your regional airline for all new hires if it meant your regional airline would acquire new aircraft, or better qol, or better pay, or other improvements?

2001 called. SkyWest wants its Ace back.

Hence the problem with this industry today and the reason for this useless thread

I fail to see the relevance of your question, as the poll shows nearly 1 in 5 pilots think its a good idea currently.

What's wrong with you being un-American on 4th of July weekend encouraging censorship. People died fighting for things like free speech
