ExpressJet, might not be the best opportunity for you. I got in at a really good time two years ago. Great work rules, decent pay for regionals, and the company treats you well. The whole company is in for a ride in the next 1-2 months. We are about to find out whats happening to the 69 airplanes that CAL doesn't want us to fly for them any more. Thats too long of a story to into, but I'm sure if you search this sight you'll find it. Point being, I would highly suggest staying close to home if possible, especially if you value time with the family. Colgan pilots are a good bunch of guys and gals, and 1900 or SAAB flying is fun. I don't know what their QOL is like, even if you are senior. 1900 flying can be hard on you though, especially on the east coast with that wx. No autopilot, so you gotta hand fly those ILS's to mins and doing that 5-7 times a day can wear on ya.
