Hi people, just my 2 cents worth.
I have flown both F/W and R/W from military to airlines(no R/W) to corporate. Each has its good points and bad.
2.5 transit in B206, boring. 12 hr transit in a Global express, boring. Being able to go to the toilet after 5 hrs in a Global Express, relief. Being able to land anywhere to go to the toilet, relief. Doing corporate transfers around the city in a A109, spectacular. Flying in to the old Hong Kong, spectacular. Planning from Tokyo to London non stop when wx at London below mins prior to dept and only 3500lbs of fuel planned to be left , demanding. Ship deck landings, demanding. External loads to ships in a B206, exciting. Dirt strips in a B200(king air), exciting. The kaos of corporate, the boss said here but when he gets on means there, frustrating. Fixed scheds with the airline, nice. Not being able to see your tail in a confined area, scary. Over the pacific with 4 hrs to an alternate, scary.
Hey, its all fun.
