General Aviation/Business or airline?
Hallo guys, I want to put a question to all of you that have experience either in General Aviation/Business aviation that in airlines. What do you think is the better? To fly a big airplane 5 on 2 off 700 hrs per year(airbus/boeing) or to work in business aviation 18/12 300 hrs per year? Do you think that after 10 years in business aviation a pilot needs to fly a big jet? and do you think that is possible for a Captain in falcon 2000 become directly captain in airbus?
thank you guys

Are you interested in money, time off, or job satisfaction?
I've done both (airline/corporate) and much prefer private owner, corporate jet flying, which allows pilots more opportunity to make operational decisions and handle the airplane.

yes you are right but somethime when I land in big airports I see airplane like A340 or B747 and I start to think how could be the life and the emotions of a pilot there. But I am agree with you after 10 years in big airplane you can be tired and you can start to think only for your private life and money...
