Why start with just regional? There were 3-4 guys in my class of under 20 people that came from charter/corporate with no 121 time. Not that big of a deal.
And compared to your charter schedule as you described it (been there, except for 3 weeks part
...), I would think commuting may not be that much of a sacrifice.
Thanks for the feedback. I do have PIC turbine time in both types to go with the total time. I have an app in at mainline USAirways and JetBlue, Spirit, to name a few. I was thinking lack of 121 experience may be a hindrance, but from what you said, sounds like not a big deal. Again, I am pretty clueless when it comes to the 121 world.
