Regarding the various "pathway" or cadet programs...
Choose your regional options based on geography, upgrade, and any other less-tangibles which matter to you. Then do their pathway programs if available. I would not select a regional(s) based on a pathway/cadet program, the benefits of that are minuscule compared to other factors I mentioned.
Thanks for the comments...not planning on choosing a regional based on the pathway/cadet. More inline with your comment...I'd do the pathway if it lines up.
With a pension, also unsure of if moving up to CA fast is the best option or will be as required as maybe for a 22 year old out of ERAU; likely would prioritize family.
