Yes, the regionals all blow, but they are not all created equal. Go somewhere that you don't have to commute (subject to change of course) and somewhere with a decent contract and less than contentious management/line pilot relationship.
The union there feels like management will come around if they discourage enough guys from going there- other than that, comparing regionals is like comparing piles of ******. Even eagle and wisco guys arent happy. Like I said- good luck and move on.
