But would certainly do the application process and see what bites. No harm there other than who you list as Personal Rec's. Your road is easier to get into the 121 game from corp. flying than the other way around.
I don't think there is a recruiter anywhere in the industry, anywhere in the world, that would hold it against someone to resign their number when they were furloughed from USAir for almost a decade and their brief recall chance came with no bypass rights, things were still touch and go at the airline in question and they had a relatively good/stable gig at that time.
Non event. Guaranteed.
