What you need to ask yourself is WHAT DO I WANT TO DO WITH MY CAREER? If your ultimate goal is to fly for the airlines, I'd say keep working in a job that allows you to build actual flight time, even if it's in a 172. Get your TT up, apply to a regional and fly the line.

That said, if you want to fly corporate or charter, you're probably better off doing one of these right seat gigs. I believe that FSI has a similar program, but they actually pay some of their folks to do the same thing.

The networking you can do as a seat-sub in a simulator is pretty incredible, especially if you conduct yourself in a professional manner. You can also learn a LOT from seeing people from a wide variety of operators and experience.
