agree, good point. Poster stated he had a military background, with I believe 4000 TT. I am making the assumption that he may need some currency or additional boxes on his application to be checked off.
He also stated he can drive to DFW. So if nobody calls him in 5 years, he is a Captain at Envoy making ? probably cracking 100K and driving to work, versus ??? at Sun Country and commuting. Maybe as a local resident he can get involved in the Envoy safety program, get involved in the training department, etc stuff.
Now, if he will make 300K at Sun Country at Year 5, sure I might decide that commuting is OK.
Just participating in this thread, I do not claim any expertise either way. Thank you for everyones perspective
