Appreciate the info. I'm sure I'll have plenty of more questions and this forum had been most helpful.

I know text doesn’t have context or tone, so I’m not trying to come across as a a$$…truly trying to help.
I guess I did a poor job of inferring that, in my opinion, it appears you are putting the cart before the horse.
Figure out where you are going to live, then narrow down your bases and planes.
Maybe you are a single nomad and will settle down based on where you get assigned….more power to ya, and if that is your scenario, then my appositives for assuming.
I’ve just seen it too many times…someone goes for the shiny jet syndrome and gets stuck commuting to RES, which is the worst thing I have ever done in my time at Delta…it was soul crushing on my family with the inability to plan more than a day out. I couldn’t get to a line fast enough! But as you inferred earlier, I don’t know your situation, so maybe it will work for you.
Again, best of luck with your decision.

I totally understand and my family is open to all options, so that's why I'm asking all these questions. My airline knowledge is limited (all mil), so the noobness is there, lol.

My sim partner and I finished sims Jan 28th. We both did 5 days of domestic OE immediately (2 days off) after the last Sim. He's currently on TOE (ATL7ERB). I haven't been assigned any TOE yet (NYC7ERA)
