-Now if you only get more time with a fistful of saratoga, they may even want to move you up from the A320 to the 777 or citation to the GV. My advice is to keep flying the heavy warrior and try to get some widebody time in a saratoga and you'll be good to go.

I agree. If it was just a tomahawk that would be one thing, but you're logging some serious heavy time in a Warrior which has a back seat, so that should impress the legacies or a corporation with a bizjet.

I would say that you might be a little short sighted here. 500 hours in the right seat of an RJ made me insurable for the left seat of a King Air at $500 per day. Also, Delta (among others) will hire a Regional FO, but not a CFI. Lastly, it is very difficult to completely understand the value of something that you don't have.

What's the W2 say?
What's the value of 401k contribution & other benefits?
Somebody can make $300/hr flying an airplane and be all snobbish about things, but if they only get paid for 10 hours/mo its absolutely no different than somebody earning $40/hr and getting paid for 75 hours other than being able to tell everybody "Hey I make _ per hour more than you do."

My point i'm trying to make is that most pilots complain about pay. Yet, they chase Jet time and turbine time. Wait a second you want to get paid well right? Then get paid well now doing whatever it is your doing. Why are you waiting 10 years down the road in hopes of getting paid well. Demand the decent wage now or find work somewhere else until they pony up the bucks.
