A LCA at WN broke it down to the fact that they’re both regionals, and I should place more weight on who could get me a breadth of knowledge and experience the quickest. ORD, ATL, and to some extent DFW are junior so you shouldn’t have an issue of getting them. One of the biggest detractors for me was the training backlog at YX. I spent enough of my life behind a desk and want to start flying real airplanes asap.

So, in my mind, they’re both regionals and crap is going to happen to me at either one but it’s my choice of perspective that will determine how happy I am. And I’ll keep my eye on the prize of moving to the majors.
