It may be a stretch but the forum posters probably work for the regionals in question

Wrong, to this point that is. If you look at the ALPA seniority list you will see that nearly everyone after seniority number 316 has elected to go and even a few senior ones to that have changed their minds to flow.

Pretty sure they are hiring mostly on the 170's so I wouldn't take the q if it was offered. Also envoy has hot reserve republic does not. And lol I believe envoy has the most lifers out of all regionals. Envoy is a very uncertain place to be right now.
Lifers who are flowing to AA at the rate of 20 per month.

PSA is in the same category as great lakes now?

Must be really bad place to work over there.

I've got interviews with both coming up and I don't really have a definite answer from this thread. I was leaning towards republic because in my mind they will do better in the future. All the 50 seaters at envoy won't be around much longer.

Is not about the plane, is about the money.
