Another tidbit for the thread title... If you can wait it out, before making a decision impacting the rest of your career, Dal pilots may be unwinding with Alpa and looking for a new dance partner. Feathers may be flying shortly!

If it's all about flying small airplanes for the majority of your career and working 50% more to get the equivalent of big airplane income, no problem. Good luck with the SL sweepstakes.
