Thanks guys, especially Westhawk for your in-depth reply! Jabs aside (and no offence taken) thanks for putting the picture straight regarding my question, your message is much apprecitated. I totally agree that hard work is the only way forward in the industry, however, as my late father always used to say...If you want the quick and easy answer to a problem, go and ask a lazy man! However, lazy men also cause accidents and with what you said in your post, I can see that buying time on a biz jet may not be the most productive (or safe) step forward. I am in the process of working/building hours, so will keep at it until I can afford to buy my own Gulfstream or set my own charter company
