You mentioned that you live in DEN. I've commuted to/from SFO and it sucks due to weather issues. That alone will likely make you want to keep your resume/apps current.
If VX works out, great. You're there. If it doesn't work out, you can transition to another airline. I think going to VX is a much better choice for you than staying at a regional where you're getting right seat time.
I flew as a Weapons Director (Controller) non-pilot. I got my ratings after I retired so no TPIC for me! That said, I may give it a shot. It's all a crap shoot no matter where we go right? Good point on what you said about staying at a regional.
