I'm in the same boat. My research talking to recruiters at a couple of the Regionals is not good if you have a recent DUI. Eagle and Republic want to see 5yrs of time between your DUI and applying. Let me know if you hear anything counter to the 5yrs, and which Regional it is. I'm not that anxious to make $20k a yr as an FO, but I'd like to know it's an optioin.
