The best regional near SYR
I am from the Syracuse NY area, and will be finishing my CFI-CFII-MEI ratings soon and am wondering what are the best choices for regionals if I want to continue to live in the Syracuse NY area.

When commuting on reserve, how near to the airport do you have to live? I currently live aproximately 55 minutes from SYR ( I live closer to rinky dink ART), so I'm wondering if I would have to move.

Don't choose to fly for a lousy Regional just because you can live at home - sure it makes life a little bit easier (in the short-term), but you'll be miserable there. Turn your life upside down and go somewhere you can be happy for several years, where life will suck on first-year pay only.

PDT hasn't been accepting any new pilots in SYR for the last few base bids. Both the number of hard lines and planes overnighting there are being decreased. I think the general consensus is that SYR is gonna get shut down as a base.
I'm having a blast at PDT, but if you don't wanna move or commute, its not gonna work out for you.
