The average pay is higher. The number of jobs that are advertised for Gulfstreams is high however you need to be typed with experience already to be considered for most of them.

You are right about the nutjob. Even my family thinks so. I am also a team player and a good pilot. Everyone of us is looking for their last job as an aviator. I would like my next one to be my last one too. I am not going to bounce from a good job. Paying for the type was requiered for consideraton in China. Part of the contract was that you recieved it back incrementally over the contract. You bounce and they keep your money. Finish the contract and they gave you nearly 100K at the end of it to Re sign. I would still take this offer for any of the jets they operate. The pay was very good. They stopped hiring non typed pilots at my interview.
What should I do to break away from the 121 into a good flight department. I am willing to move
almost anywhere.
