I say it's a bad move, especially now. You're on a seniority list. I'd say stay there until things calm down.

Plus, do you really want to be hired at the end of a 1000 pilot hiring bubble? (not sure of the actual number of pilots hired in the last 1 to 1.5 years but i'm sure it's quite a few)

My .02 good luck buddy
He will because he could upgrade on the Bro in year 2 and if he transitions he'll make more than the max FO rate at TSA. BTW most of our Bro pilots make $35K+ second year. Can you do that at TSA?

As far as the original poster, if SKW has the domiciles you want and you're not chasing an early upgrade to get to the majors then I'd make the move. SKW is a good top tier regional and we'll be a major player for decades to come.
