Listening to someone think they are "hard" because they fly 121 jets seems preposterous.

Also, in regards to FTroop's posts, I really am surprised gliders are not mandatory in the curriculums of more schools. Seems like a very solid basis for pilots to build from. ( and likely cost effective )
Single 135 obviously requires a much lower skill level than flying larger 121 aircraft.
