I gotta say I tend to agree. The few trips I did in the Citation were great.
I've got several friends working for piedmont and I've gotten to know a few corporate pilots that fly into the FBO I work at. When listening to all the stories and then comparing the ups and downs of both I think Corporate is a better fit for me. Though I wouldn't mind getting some first hand experience in the airlines and see how I like it and then go from there.
