The trouble is how to know where the line is before you cross. I was just talking about that same issue here a few days back in fact. And qualifying for food stamps is not new. It applied to me when I flew for an airline 15 years ago. But then, I took the job knowing full well what I was getting in to.

Don't new co-pilots already qualify for food stamps at some regionals? -Drake Thank you for answering my question but how much farther can the regionals come down?

Today though, unions are in a bind though, just as other associations, as they try to justify their existence. Plenty of people have grown up in the past 20 years believing unions are an ugly word. Many working pilots see the union as only a necessary evil which I think speaks to how "un-unionized," they really are. Pilots join a union because they believe they should in order to maintain their standard of living, but think as individuals and hope someone else will handle the dirty work, like negotiations. The companies see this state of individual, wavering loyalty and use it to their advantage, I think. As far as pay scales going up at the regionals, it might be awhile for many since they have not finished coming down yet.

I think it is also hard for airlines to make much of a profit when airlines are selling tickets really cheap to attract customers. I know this is all part of competition and not everyone can always be pleased. Some airlines will survive and others may not but as with every other type of business everyone can not always win. I hope it works out for the pilots and the airlines and hope to see better pay for regional pilots ecspecially and hope to see airlines finding a way to make money and suceed. I know things won' t always work out but that is one the main points of unions, to figure out an agreement. Drake Ferruzzi Dear, Rob
