He told me a few months ago if I stayed around he'd send me to flight safety for the Merlin so I could only assume he'd do the same with the Citation. Worth hanging around for or is the 300-400hrs a year in it not worth it compared to a regional?
Always be careful about ASSuming in this bidness. If he does send you to flight safety, if you do qualify for insurance, if he does pay you more, and if you get to be PIC then it might be a very good idea to stay. It just all depends on what you want to do with yourself down the road. Just be aware that if you want to eventually go to some airline, get on with that airline ASAP....literally. This is when the seniority lecture comes into play.
