Default Cargo or fractional

I posted a few weeks ago about flying a PC 12 but I am leaning towards cargo for a change.

I was looking at AMF, keylime and air cargo carriers.

I like the schedule at keylime but at least one colleague discourages me and 3 others mentioned AMF as a better option. I am 42 years old with 3000hrs and 2000 turbine sic.

Plenty of regional offers but I got fed up with the 4 day trips.

Browsing the AMF thread gave me a reasonable picture and I made contact with recruitment.
Nice people so far.

I like the 4 day schedule at keylime though.

Any other companies I should consider?

He means the 4 day work week keylime has. 4 nights a week and home during the day I believe. I've heard good things about keylime passenger service but terrible things about their cargo (fatal accident not too many months ago). Do what fits you best tho. You've got the hours to be competitive anywhere pretty much.

FedEx Feeders have a nice schedule. I think the dream job would be 4 on 3 off home every night flying a Jet. I wonder if such job exsist.
