I pretty much have to commute which is why I went with Endeavor. GoJet RDU base is 1.5 hours away but I just wasn't so sure of that one. PSA CLT base was a little over 2 hours away so that would have been a decent choice. QoL seems to be better here than many other places and more worth the discomfort of commuting. I MAY move to a base at some point but for now I have a 1 leg commute. Figured if I get stuck at a regional, this is probably one of the few that you can probably make 100k by year 3.

It's not like you are signing a 4 year contract like the military. You can always alter your path in relatively short order if things aren't working out.
