Ask 80ktsClamp how long he spent at the regionals. More importantly, ask him how long he was an FO.
Get in and get out, that's the way to go.
"Sweet chedda" at horizon or Skywest flinging gear for years @ 40k is still complete crap. Anything less than 50-60k and i guarantee those boys and girls have issues paying those school loans back.
Last I checked long-term regional is not the way we want to go Right? Being stuck at one is another issue.
I don't know where that guy got 4yr upgrades from? But as of right now I'd say 2yrs or less* (dependent on a lot of variables)
