1st, NetJets has furloughs that could easily last into double digit years. Even if they didn't have furloughed pilots and they were hiring, their minimums are much higher than regional airlines. You could easily make it to the regionals. Not to demean or insult regional lifers, but think of the first few years at a regional as a low rung on the ladder. Seriously, some have bridge programs that hire worthless flight school grads into the right seat.
