From someone who was at AE then another major and now Comair....lateral move is dangerous. If you enjoy where you're at, stay put. I believe someone mentioned on here that an 18 month upgrade today can turn into 5 years tomm. That is VERY VERY accurate. On the flipside, a 7 year wait may turn into an 18 month upgrade. Get the exp. not so much in flying but in ops and regulatory exp. so you will be ready for that upgrade, when it comes. When your time comes for the upgrade, flying the airplane is notthe issue but rather your enviromental exp, decision making and leadership skills. \
Good luck in whatever decision you make.

I'm sure when you come over the Q400 whining will be one of the only things you do? I could hear you now "conditions levers, piece of sh!t" "man the RJ went way faster than this piece of crap" "the RJ this the RJ that" hahahahah "7 legs today, man that sucks" "ahh we have to go through customs 4 times today" and the list goes on and on.. I guess the moral of the story is if you think you wont fly with someone that whines, then you need to go fly solo where it is vfr and smooth air with a good scenary.
Oh I was just referencing upgrade time whining. Pilots are expected to whine about show times, van drivers, etc.
