Like to request happy as a final
 
Looking for advice on my career. I currently have an enjoyable, challenging job flying a turbo-prop all over the world. However too much travel (i.e. gone up to 4-5 weeks at a time.) I have a very strong relationship with my girlfriend that I value greatly. I am looking for a position that would accomodate a life outside of flying, financial security, and basically a good QOL. I had never been very intrigued with the airlines but some of my priorities are changing with age. I am a low time guy with over 2000TT, 1000 muti-turbine PIC. I live somewhat simply so money is not my first concern of all factors to be weighed, but I still would like to make a decent salary at industry standards, and am certainly not looking to undercut my fellow pilots. I may be asking too much. I also realize that many pilots that are happy with their current situation may not spend as much time at this forum. Just looking for a little advice from guys that have BTDT as to where I go next. Thanks for the advice.

The UPS app window is supposed to open up in August or Sept. I would suggest applying when it does and consider attending an aviation job fair. Air Inc., is having one in DC this September.
