It was just two short years ago that we saw 76 seaters parked at mainline gates while mainline was sending out WARN letters. You forgot about that already?
Dude is either a management troll or clueless nube. Either way, this line of thinking is a cancer to our profession. Hope the wiser pilots among us see the bigger picture.

This has already been happening.
for now - can easily change in the next down turn

so short sighted. I don’t give an eff if they set pay scales at 1000$ per hour. If there’s no job because boneheads like this vote to relax scope, then it doesn’t matter what the job pays.

Right!! I’m with you. Just give me minimum wage, as long as work rules and scope are rock solid!! Sarcasm. I think the last guys post was a bit sarcastic too.

I truly wonder what some of these guys backgrounds are who even have the faintest receptivity to relaxing scope in any way shape or form. Can someone possibly slug it out through the regionals for any amount of time and still hold this view? Are they prior military? Corporate? On another note, turboprops aren’t coming back. Pax hate em. I hope the regional model crumbles and dies a quick death.

That is exactly what most pilots will do. Just look at Section 3. if you doubt this, look at the outrage on this forum over the rumored pay increase. And now I get to read on here how much other sections are more important than Section 3. BS. The same guys talking about all of the other sections will go to Section 3 and place the greatest weight on Section 3.

Let's go with a hypothetical: the other sections in the contract meet all requirements but Section 3 has a less than 10% immediate pay raise. I can guarantee that there will be huge uproar on these forums. But anyone who's read these forums for any length of time should realize that the posts on this forum do not represent the rank and file. If the inevitable forum poll on this TA comes in at or above 20%, the TA will likely pass.

Because how many were sitting around getting paid to not fly? 2020 was a blessing for thousands of pilots, so to them no harm no foul I suppose…
