I'm currently with a big fractional and have a job offer in hand for next month. Seriously contemplating Spirit. 50 something, middle seniority, and made 180k last year. Have home basing, can bid scheds/vaca of my choice, but tired of life on the road at the frac.

Wondering what others think, would it be worth the hit in pay for a few years for better QOL? I'm looking at around a $150k hit (or more) until upgrade. Any scuttle butt on upgrade times?

I've seen as low as 2.5(ish) years currently, anyone want to guess; would that time frame remain, stagnate, or improve?

I turn 65 in less than 10yrs and with a three year or less UG, the money is a wash. Longer than that and the numbers don't work as well.

Thanks from a newb to the forum.
