I'm from the FDK area and am looking to get back to the area and be based there. It's awesome for a regional guy...take your pick of airlines hiring with junior bases at IAD to live in base. Not only that, good international flying for travel if that's your thing, and easy to get anywhere with lots of good options because of flight frequency from those 3 airports. Seems like a nobrainer. Too bad AWAC wasn't based at BWI or IAD. That DCA drive requires a Xanax prescription if you're not used to the drive and the traffic that can come with it. I wonder if metro does monthly parking passes at Shady Grove. Who knows, I'll cross that bridge in the next few months.
