A slightly different scenario...UAV AGR or T-38 ART?
The T-38 would obviously be better from the flying/building hours/currency perspective, but if the airlines don't pan out then I am thinking the AGR will be better from a pay/benefits perspective.
I have come to the conclusion that it really depends on long-term goals. Anyone have any different opinions?
What is the ultimate goal? Airlines? Take the flying job. Getting 20 active years? Take the UAV. Something else to consider.... if you take the uav agr, after hitting 20 and you have to retire, what then? An airline job is most definitely out of the question. If in a few years, you don't get on with the airlines and you want an active retirement, IMHO uav slots/other opportunities will be available. Once you have the airline job, you can always transfer to a UAV unit. It won't work in reverse if you loose recency.
