Fat Clemenza: I am currently researching both the Embraer 145 and Boeing 737 paths. I have family that are aircrew where I might be able to build up some turboprop time and then commence one of the above type ratings possibly with some experience 'sourced' for me too. However I want to eventually end up at the Business jet end of things. In an ideal world I would just go the Embraer path with 8-10 months flying too but what if I don't get into the corporates with this level experience then I'd probably wish I had a generic 737 type to fall back. The only way along the 737 path is to also get time but then the line time is something I'd be forced to buy myself (no family connections there unfortunately) which makes things expensive.

Thus the quagmire of indecision I'm currently in
