I’ve done 135, regional, legacy, and the cargo. I’ve found things I enjoy at each place. As I get older and have a young family, I find long trips aren’t a great fit.
I can't offer a fair comparison between regional and the big three, other than seeing mainline pilots doing the same exact goat rope I was doing and despised every second of it. If the future has me making that decision, I just hope I have something on the side that would allow me to say no and hang my hat from this industry, if I couldn't keep doing what I am doing now.
