If you are a student of aviation history, then you already know that regionals only have about a 15-year shelf life. You’ve already been there for 7, so at best you have another 6 or 8 years to enjoy that cash cow.
Your regional will tank right about the same time your kids start college, your boat needs a new engine, or your wife finds a lump. In other words, the best time to leave “any regional” for “any major” is Yesterday. |

Not sure I’m willing to make all these sacrifices, especially since I have a wife, a kid and a mortgage to pay.
And good luck with that. |

Both of these numbers are inaccurate. Please let's try and do better when we post about things such as this. Numbers matter!

I know a guy who knows a gal who is good with numbers, and she says it's 487/323 for the year. |

Doesn't matter who lied to you. Still wrong. And I know when you posted it, and the numbers were wrong for the month to which you were referring.
