I was furloughed from 121 in 2003, did the flow down to regional purgatory for 2 years then found out about Fractional Private Jet flying. Got on with NetJets and never went back to 121, even declining recall to a major. I love the type of flying vs 121 and generally it's more secure than 121 however the 2007-8 recession was an exception to that. I stayed with it until I lost my medical in 2017.
