I sat in one in the NetJets hangar with my buddy and my shoulder was about 2" from the window. Compared to the Canadair Regional Jet, the width of the legroom is about 6" narrower by my estimation. I thought it was tight. I'm 6' 250.

However at JB medical/dental/vision for a family is around $300 (and the deductibles and max out of pocket are much higher), crashpad $200, gas/tolls driving back and forth to JFK, $200/month. Also, you get to pocket most of your per diem at NJA due to the crew food program.
Then you throw in hotel/airline points, schedule stability (at least on the 7/7), etc. and it's a no brainer for me. NJA also has some great benefits for a reservist such as myself.
I don't want to sound too down on JB as it is a good place to work and I will certainly miss the Airbus on those transcons!
