Nice town, good overnight but definitely "northern Mexico"...if you catch my drift... Not as bad as Laredo or Harlingen though.

And to answer the question of the guy who started the thread, consider this:
Pilot A and Pilot B both work for the same flight school. Pilot A jumps at the first thing to come along, in this case Colgan. Pilot B on the other hand, waits an additional 6 months until he can go where he wants, in this case Pinnacle. Fast forward a year. Pilot A is two-legging it, flying older, broken down airplanes to the same 6 airports day in and day out and generally hating life. After a year of that Pilot A is fed up and decides to jump to an airline with a base in his hometown, better pay and better equipment (in this case Pinnacle). Pilot B on the other hand has been at Pinnacle for 6 mos, building seniority, living in base and generally having a better regional airline experience. Now, Pilot A gets hired at Pinnacle 6 months and 200 pilots later than Pilot B. Who did the smarter thing? Some people will tell you "take the first thing, get on the seniority list, seniority means everything!" Thats a load of BS. It's meaningless if you jump ship after a year, you don't take your seniority with you from airline to airline. So unless you are at an airline you want to stay at for 5-10 years, enough time to upgrade and build a few thousand hours TPIC, then you are wasting your time.
