If SkyWest takes any of our aircraft...our pilots go with them. That was the deal when they bought us.

Pick the one that has the best commuting option with earliest start date a close second.
With your previous hours you're just trying to get current to be eligible for a major but you may have to wait it out for a year or two so an easy commute is key.
