The plan was to join an operator based in Europe therefore the Legacy seemed like a decent aircraft to move to, I have no desire to fly a Nextant with a cramped cockpit, small cabin, no real bathroom, no apu or pressure refuelling.
That is what I meant by being trapped, on a smaller biz jet type with no guarantee of moving back to the larger type.
Fair enough but you will move up in 2 years at the very most. The new aircraft start coming next year and from what I understand they are looking at the new Gulfstreams and Embraer Praetors.
Nextant pilots will also be offered the first upgrades. I think it could be a very good gig.
