If your goal is a major. Even if you wait for QX how long will reserve be,? how many hours will you get in a yea?. If all that maters is a PNW base. Then its ok. If flight time matters, Then go to OO where you can have both PNW and flight time. Or take Another regional and get to DL or AS asap for a SEA base…

Thanks. Horizon took down all but the pilot development job postings and seems to have stopped hiring so I gave up on them. I moved 3 times for a regional during the lost decade and I am not moving again, so SkyWest it is. Once my youngest is 18 in three years I will consider commuting if necessary.

If you care more about fast career progression, probably OO would be a better option. QX is shrinking right now.
If you care more about being based in the Pacific Northwest Horizon would probably be a better option.
I don't know how junior the OO Pacific Northwest bases are right now. You should probably ask some skywest pilots about that.

If you have over 850 hours of 121 time OO will likely guarantee you base of choice as a near DEC.
