...spoken by someone who doesn't fly a jet. I know more than anyone that I don't deserve my seat in the CRJ and that it is truly a blessing. I absolutely love to fly and would fly a even a Cessna 172 if the pay was decent, but c'mon there is part of all of us that wants to be flying a jet and there is nothing wrong with desireing that.
What difference does it make what kind of engine is on your aircraft? Just as you say, I'd fly a Cessna around if it would net me $100K a year.

Props often do 8-10+ short legs/day, jets probably average 3-4, usually longer legs. In my opinion most of a pilot's work is done on the ground during the turns. Longer days and a lot more busy-work in the prop. Instead of doing turns I'd rather be reading my newspaper at FL330.
Maybe I'm just lazy...
