Sadly, that is the conclusion I have been resigning myself to. Come April and May I will be applying everywhere, shoot for the moon, but I am expecting it will be a regional for a year or two.

Which brings me to another question, which regionals have the best QOL? The pay scales are unfortunately all close enough not to matter that much over the course of 1-2 years. I am not looking for mudslinging and which regionals to avoid, I have an idea already. But rather, which regionals to apply to, what are your top 3 picks and why. Also, what about the 135 jet world, and why.

Thanks in advance!
