Yeah, first year major call it 90k to be safe (may get paid less in new-hire training than online guarantee).
I'd probably move major upgrade out a bit further, the retirement wave will be winding down then, and you may not actully *want* to take the first upgrade and commute to NYC to sit early am reserve on Christmas morning.
Also agree that you shouldn't *have* to wait four years to upgrade at a regional. Unless you pick the wrong regional.
