Comment on Don’t forget to tip your airline pilot! by Greg

Greg — Tue, 25 Nov 2008 06:07:49 +0000

I am a regional airline pilot. I have been flying for a living for 8 years. I must first say that Tara has little to no knowledge of which she speaks. Modern airliners do not require super-humans to fly. Nor do they just fly themselves around the sky with the pilots half-asleep. The airplanes are skill-intensive and the environment they operate in requires experienced people to operate safely. Again, I am not saying pilots are even close to super-humans performing an incredible feet. However, they need to be experienced professionals.

Anyway, back to my point. I have been a regional airline pilot for 3 of the 8 years I have been a paid professional in the occupation. This year I will have a taxable income of $36,000. For this wage I was required to have a very expensive education and 5-years experience in the industry. And this is year 3 pay. My first year pay was $26,000. I work for the highest paying regional airline in the United States; a point they often like to make when they constantly tell my co-workers and I they consider us 30% overpaid.

We as pilots have been fighting hard to keep our wages and quality-of-life from degrading. However, we have been hurt a great deal by the Railway Labor Act (RLA), by binding arbitration, and by bankruptcy rulings following the prior rounds of airline mis-management.

I don’t believe I had any problems with the application. If I am mistaken, is there any way to know for sure?
