Hello,

I'm coming up on ATP minimums and I want to go to SkyWest. I'm a single mom and since my family is in BOI and I'd like to utilize their help, I would want to shoot for the E175 to BOI and try to eventually upgrade there, as well.

If the junior base for the E175 is ORD, how hard is it to commute there from somewhere like BOI? Should I plan on just moving my kids to BOI from the start and not seeing them for a few months while on reserve?

As far as upgrading, what might I expect to be able to be based in BOI as a captain?

I'm less concerned with a quick upgrade time as I am living in base and being with my kids as much as possible. Is this a bad strategy?

Thanks!
