I guess that is why I am not jumping at the first thing to come along. I also had to get to where if I leave the security of the federal trough and get furloughed the next month I was OK with that. I'm there now and miss flying. Trying to figure out where I can go fly but stay out of the drama and politics.

Those are two different questions. You would probably get off reserve sooner at CHQ ORD but S5 ORD will probably give you better QOL. Although, YX is probably going to be opening (still up in the air) an ORD base and that would more than likely give you the best of both.

bad advice
It might not be in the application requirements, but I guarantee if you don't have it you won't get a call for an interview.
Most applicants for major airlines have WAY more than 1000 TPIC. If you don't, forget about it.
Go where you can get an early upgrade and fly your donkey off.

won't.............maybe
I agree 1000 TPIC is a nice thing to have on your resume and in the late 90's was a "must have". It is no longer something that you must have to get an interview. The people hiring these days understand the stagnation that is occuring at regional airlines and don't expect every applicant to have the 1000 PIC they used to expect.
That being said you will probably not get a look as a 6 year RJ FO with no other salient experience. With no upgrade in sight move on to something that adds to your experience and resume for example a 121 supplemental carrier flying large equipment internationally (767, 747, etc.) and you might get a look without the 1000 PIC turbine and you will make a whole lot more money than an RJ FO.

I see aircraft types by certificate, and bases by certificate, but I'm guessing that all type are not in every base. I see that the Q's are DEN, PIT and MCI based with Republic, what about the jets? That is the piece I haven't been able to figure out.
