Go get the MEI.
Even my SWA buds say you don't want to go to SWA. They have hired so many in the past decade that you will be a bottom feeder for quite a while.
So, if you rule SWA out, is there a need to go get the type? If you are looking for some Part 135... or even 91... that would like that type, then maybe you should get it.
Bottom line: it depends on what you want.
For me, my MEI has opened up a large potential market of income.
