Regionals are just dues paying and are not meant to be your career.
While AWAC does not have a 6 month upgrade, it is also certainly NOT 7 years, I do not know where you get your information, but you sure think you have all the answers. There are alot of good people at Skywest, but all it takes is ONE day to turn things around there, One merger, United saying you are too expensive, etc.. United is NOTORIOUS for screwing their regionals, just ask any ACA/AWAC guy 6 yrs ago if they thought they would EVER lose the United flying.
