I am in the January 16 class next week. I live in in the metroplex and I don't want to commute. Would it be a good idea to pick the 175 (considering I have the chance) so that I am immediately based in DFW? That is what I have been thinking about doing and I've been hoping there will be enough 175 slots to pick from.
If it's not available, what is the easiest base to commute to from DFW that would also allow me to get back to DFW as soon as possible?
