Pipeline for whom and where? That is a major consideration.... I would be careful.... then again I am off to do the pipeline thing as well.

Be careful. It's easy to get stuck doing pipeline. I'm trying to get out of it now. Don't know what i'm gonna do short of buying some nighttime hours.

1100 hours and you want weekends off?!? Why I oughta....... Seriously though, take the Key Lime job. Get the multi and wait it out for the turbine. Much better to have that type of flying on your resume.

I would just make sure that you have researched Key Lime's reputation thoroughly.

Have you thought about applying at some other 135 ops?
