Yeah but PylotOnDaRise, look at their second year and upwards pay. Almost EVERY airline that isn't considered to be a regional has crappy first year pay, most likely because you are still sitting on probation and are a liability to the company. But that money is made up the second, third, fourth, etc. years as the career proceeds. If people weren't so willing and ready to take jobs at $20,000 flying airplanes with people's lives in their hands for christ's sake, maybe we wouldn't all be arguing about this. Yeah you can consider making 40,000 a year as a regional pilot, but that is not the argument. YOU are a pilot, not a garbageman that is HOME every night doing a job that requires absolutely NO education. Someone could pay me $300 per hour to fly a 172 the rest of my life and I'd do it. It's not what you fly, but the lifestyle you live and the ability to earn a decent wage doing it!
