Thanks all for the advice. The 10c rate I'm being offered for 10k PQM seems reasonable but I think I'll skip it for now - I have one TPAC trip that may be added to my year that could give me enough PQM without needing to buy any. If that falls through I'll consider a mileage run and/or PQM purchase later.
Is there a thread about PQD runs? Dont think I'll need one but I'm curious to educate myself about that.
