Great Lakes pay is really low and I would be making less money but I am looking more towards being challenged, flying a bigger, faster, more advanced aircraft. Building turbine time getting an upgrade and then building PIC turbine time. Its a tough decision to make, I have something relatively stable right now but I want to advance my career in market where the hiring at other regionals is nil, hence my problem. I am sure I am not the only one in this position so any advice is greatly appreciated.
