I love flying the 320, and god willing, and RA keeping his word, I may be a very happy senior Airbus Captain the rest of my career in Memphis. There are few bases, none as far as I know, that approach the old school friendliness and charm of MEM. And to you old DAL types, you will love the 320/319 and be very welcome in bidding into this bastion of Old Southern Charm. Water under the bridge. Time to move forward!
Don't forget its the last city in the system where your income allows you to live like the pilots of old. I lived in MEM for five years and it would be hard for me to find a house in any part of town I wanted to live, even on FO pay.
