Just don't knock up any of those hot F/A's or else you WILL be in A LOT of debt.

2. I heard Colgan f/a's are cute...and if they are dating sabb captains good for them....I wouldn't wanna date anyways....been there done that
3. This is why I posted this thread....wanted to know what people thought about my idea, that probably wont work, because thats just life.
4. And I think I'll pass on the space shuttle flying.

Corporate flying is good and has a better life style than the regionals, but I don't know how quick SIC time will get you hired. In the corporate world for jet they want PIC, turbine, and usually time in type if not a type rating. For turbo props maybe but you must understand that insurance companies truly run the show on hiring minimums and they want PIC time.

Having spoken with many legacy airline pilots, and some who have done both airlines and corporate tend to like airline flying.
Specifically, for an airline, you are not responsible for as much work as a corportate pilot. Remember that there are generally no flight attendents and no people to load bags on the flight line. That is YOUR responsibility. Remember that YOU may be incharge of food and drink preparation. Remember that YOU must file the flight plan and determine your route.
Just a few heads up
