Sadly, SJS'ers were ,and will be, lining up for those jobs at the same rates "just to get their foot in the door". They are developing a precedent for low wages because they don't want to sacrifice a few years to flight instruction, freight, banner towing etc. I'm sure there are plenty of guys like me (3500tt+, gobs of multi ,600 tpic, ) who refuse to work for that BS.
