Yeah, and there's a pot of gold at the end of every rainbow too.

Translation incorrect.... Means not everything is unicorns and candy covered rain drops... I see vacation and flow to airways have been canceled and heavily metered due to lack of staffing...

Eh, regional's. They're all just a different level of suck.
As for me, I'm a CLT local at a point in my career where a year or two of jet time will really enhance the old resume. And to heck with commuting, been there done that, so PSA is really my only option. Thoughts?

My point is to alert the CFIs out there to avoid ALL wholly owned regionals and not to fall for recruitment bs. You dont have a problem with that- do you?
Be more concerned with where you work and get out now! Peace man- Lets just agree to disagree. Good luck.
Ok Bozo and all... I am a newbie and looking for as much info as possible before making a decision on where to go.
Clearly I am hearing to steer away from PSA as it seems like it's the new gojet of even much worse!
But then I am also hearing oh do not go to Gojet, do not go to Eagle (too bad for a DFW based), do not go to Mesa, do not go to whiskey, do not go to Xjet (ah you know all these 50 seaters....), do not go to commutair, do not go to Horizon, do not go to endeavour, etc etc... I will not even mention Silver, GLA.
I even hear do not go to SKW ah, because I will be commuting to reserve for ever! Only one remains then: compass! And I am not competitive for compass!
So, where do I go? I guess do not go to ANY regional, they are all crap and I get that! They need to triple entry level pay. But then again where does one go to get these freaking 121 hours?
Well, by process of elimination, looks like Piedmont it is. Let me know, I can get you an interview.

PSA on your resume will probably hurt you.
PSA pilots are extremely frowned upon by fellow pilots. They voted through that POS contract which not only showed PSA pilots are spineless but also sold all fellow regional pilots down the river.

If you don't want to look at yourself in the mirror again and don't mind being hated and getting dirty looks from all other airline pilots as you walk through the terminal go to PSA. If you have dignity and self respect choose another carrier.

As the saying goes: "The only thing worse than flying for PSA is admitting you fly there"....

Good luck.

Commuting sucks. If you can work from the city you live in, do it.
