Regardless, I have an offer from ExpressJet and am seriously considering it. I like what I see and most of what I read (I account for how generally people are more negative and complain on forums). I did/do plan to bid EWR followed by ORD. TYS would be first choice but I don't see that happening for quite a while.

Not 20 years but also small enough that no one knows when the next vacancy will open.
