If a family of 4 can't live off of that without a second income, they are doing life wrong.

Guess you don't live in NYC

I think the 76 seat is going to be the limit. A weight increase I could see possible in the future.
If mainline pilots want a 10% $ bump for an extra 1500lb GTW
On a 76 seat rj ain't gonna happen

Then maybe you shouldn't live in NYC if you can't afford to live there. I know for sure that I'll never vote in scope relief because someone can't afford to live in Manhattan. You choose to live in the city instead of moving somewhere that is cheaper to live.

Good on ya, the unfortunate reality is that the senior guys run the MECs, until the Jr guy take over the song will remain the same. I have chatted with widebody CAs at length, and to a man they were completely unaware as to what was going on at the bottom of their list, much less at their regional code shares. If there is cash on the table, their only concern is to get as much as possible.

Look back at past history. Same thing was said about the 50 and 70 seat aircraft. And, we see what happened with that. This is business 101, and contract agreements 101. Everything has a price, trust me.

Where can I sign up for Contract Agreements 101, I'd like to take that class?
