A word of advise...... fast upgrades are not what makes a good regional. I've heard upgrades at Go! are short, but you should not assume that makes it good.

Who has the shortest upgrades is very cyclical, I know hundreds of people who came to ASA when it was "the place" to work, getting 4 new jets a month, off the street captains, etc. Now no one should even think about appplying here until we get our contract done, and SKYw and the Masiah in the desert (JA) figure out the plan.

Look for good quality of life issues like duty rigs, schedule rules, pay, then upgrades. You never know when the next thing is going to happen and the industry comes to a screaching stop (again). You don't want to be stuck at a Mesa or Go! (or probably ASA is in that group right now) when things go bad.
