If you want the RJ...I'd hold out for an RJ class. There were a number of guys that took the Bro, in hopes of transition to the RJ after their seatlock (1st year pay is the same) so they could get a seniority number sooner. Now, 3+ years later, many of them are stuck on the Bro, because the company stopped awarding transitions when things slowed down.

If it were me, I'd just take the first class that is offered. For me, it was the CRJ, so I guess I'm lucky, pay wise. Such a boring plane though.

I really need to get a job before I have to accept a mandatory recall from TSA - Yikes! How important is currency at SKW? My last flight was on September 2010 (part 135 scheduled and unscheduled airlines I used to work for...) so I wonder if 90+ days away from a cockpit would be an issue.
