Good advice. I used to fly a Beaver for the British Army and used to roll up regularly alongside the DC10s etc on the stands at Calgary airport to pick up visitors. The number of times the crews used to come over and say they wished they were still flying one made me not bother with airlines particularly but stay with machines that require a bit of myself as an input to be flown properly, like driving an old Bentley rather than a new one, hence stopping at the 212. I couldn't quite do the 139
