Basically, people that bash other regionals are living in glass houses.

Actually returning - I was a product of the late 90's and choose to not go into aviation for numerous reasons. Kept invovled, owned a plane etc.. Making a run at it now after testing the waters in pt135 world. We own a business - hence cant move but putting in the sacrifices. Regional is the best option for ATP and turbine. Commute aside not going to uproot everything for regional life and I have a number of good options to make it doable but will include a drive to various airports if needed.

My business partner/wife - plus I stay involved running backend type stuff that can be done anywhere - so both of us. I currently travel for pt135 flying so we have it figured out and working on an exit strategy / it's back up if the sky falls in aviation.
The mesa diversion on this thread is entertaining. Being a product of the late 90's aviation education, I chose to not fly other than for myself including plane ownership. Stayed close enough to know all the history of Mesa and while I am not 'too good enough' - I simply choose to not go that route based on close friends that have spent time there.
I am just another person trying to catch the wave making best choices as possible that works for me. Everyone has their own path.
