Help with regional decisions
I flew for one year with a regional and flew the RJ 200. Loved it but extreme curcumstances forced me to quit. I am looking to possibly go back and looking for help. I have to commute so I am looking at anything in MSP DEN or Chicago. I have been out long enough to not know who commutes well and the airlines that maybee junior at these places. I currently work on the GA side of aviation and its looking bad. This is why I may have to make my ratings go to work again. Also who has the best reserve policy.

You go where they need you irregardless of your experience. Some go to the Brasilia and some CRJ. All depends on their staffing needs at the time.

If they are hiring into the RJ and you have RJ experience, that's where you will go.
But for the time being they have a huge backlog of burned-out bro FO's who want to transition to the jet so suspect any new hires will go to the bro for the near future at least.

Thanks for the info. How is their reserve and what are the current TP junior bases. I would not mind flying a bro at all, the base would be way more important. Also is there the typical two year seat lock? Thanks again
