Unfortunately it’s not recognized that way...yet.
If (hopefully when) I make it back to 121 it will literally be a working vacation compared to what I do now.
I did ACMI (overseas) for 7 years, 91K for 8, 121 for the last 6. In order of difficulty (and reward) ACMI>91K>121. Having said that, from what I see, the people having problems with 121 are more likely 91K/135 than regional. FWIW....
