Hey USMCFLYR,
If you upgrade faster (after 18 months) you may be able to reduce the difference somewhat. With that said, Netjets has by far the best pay out there with Citationshares and Flexjet close behind. You might have to wait longer for upgrades at the bigger programs. So, it's a classic tradeoff. I hear the Avanti II is a fun airplane to fly.
BTW, Flexjet is hiring onto the Challenger 300 which uses the Pro Line 21, Citationshares is hiring onto the CJ3 which uses the Pro Line 21 and Netjets assigned 6-7 recent newhires to the Citation Encore+ which also uses Pro Line 21. So, apply to all of the fractionals and there is a chance you will get to enjoy Pro Line 21 eventually.
