Chances are you're not going to go straight from right seat dc-9 to left seat of a falcon without any falcon time, I have a friend at usa jet thats dealing with that right now. He's been there about 18 months, got hired on the falcon and was in -9 training within 4 months of being on the line in the falcon, he now has the total time and seniority to upgrade on the falcon but they won't give it to him unless he goes back and sits right seat on the falcon for a few more months to get his falcon time up. With that King Air pic time they may have you flying their King Air as well, that might not all be that bad. From what he's said and I've seen you'll be lucky to fly 500 hours a year there.

If you want to get in touch with him shoot me a pm and I'll give you his email, he would probably more than glad to talk to you about it.

Take it with a grain of salt, I have been flying on-demand for the past 2 years. Not a long time, but its long enough to see how people think they will get one thing and end up with the exact opposite.

With 2000 total time and 1000 king air pic as it seems you will have you would probably be a shoe in at citation shares or something similar, way better qol at those places.
