Personal preference of lifestyle, I guess; also, money is not everything, some of us have been flying the mini-bus for a while; I'm looking forward to a change of pace if the opportunity arised...
have a great weekend everyone!
Sure. Depends on your take on it. 22 years on the scarebus, and never paid for anything in aviation apart from the odd sim check, means it is a hard step for me to take. We all have choices.

Also as has been said here a lot, i think 5 more years here is slightly optomistic maybe? So where would you go with a 350 type rating. As a contractor the type to be on is the 320, sad as it is.
