Default Fractional or cargo?

I just got done reading a thread in "majors" regarding a person who wanted input on chosing between continental and UPS. Most of the responses were in favor of UPS. However, it suddenly occured to me what if one had to chose between a company like netjets and UPS? In other words in terms of job security, how does a fractional company look like in the long run?

Personally I don't know what is so appealing about flying private jets. Yet, it seems like the trend is to fly corporate. I guess some like job security rather than the glamor of flying passangers. Don't worry about fractional flying, we won't be seeing any fractional loose money any time soon.

As long as their safety record stays spotless. All it takes is a mechanical malfunction and a pilot not on his "A" game...
