I have to agree with you here. While I'd love to have a major airline job and lifestyle with a 3-400K house and a nice car in the driveway theres more to the picture than income and equipment. For me where I live and proximity to family and the outdoor activities I love top the list and is why I'm here in Seattle flying greasy old pt 135 airplanes rather than an RJ in Florida or Newark. I"m much happier in my current gig than being a jet capt out east.....for now anyway. Count me in as another Seattle based 135 guy interested in Horizon. Besides, I can forget about selling my house any time soon!
