I have several flight instructors at at ExpressJet. While they like the company, neither reports the life is all that great and one of them reports he is going to look for a cargo job. That does not reflect on XJet but it reflects on regionals. I have come to the conclusion seniority at a regional is less inportant than choosing one you can put up with for a few years. I am not very tempted to apply to low min regionals and am spending my weekends tossing out airheads to build time. It's as much fun as it sounds (a lot). I am working on my CFI ticket, but since I live 45 miles from a flight school I do not plan to use it.
