I'm not locked into a particular city, but really, I would much prefer to remain here in the Midwest. I'd even go as far as saying the northern part of the Midwest (ND/SD/MN), if I could. For the right job, though, I'm more than open to area Denver to Columbus, Oklahoma City to the Canadian border. I know there are a lot of jobs down in the Minneapolis area, but like I said before, the problem is that I don't know anyone.

On call, well, at the moment, No, I don't think I would mind that too much. That of course could change in the future, depending on whether I have a family or am still stuck as a bachelor. As far as being involved with a plane, again, depends on the job and company. I wouldn't have any problem being completely in charge of the aircraft, I could handle that responsibility. That's actually one of the big reasons I've wanted to be involved in corporate aviation, that sense of being an important part of the company, not just a number (and I'm not saying that that isn't possible at a larger company--my current position has proved that to me since I've started).

I'm guess I'm just trying to get some insight into both worlds...corporate is my dream, but the opportunity is there at the good regionals. I think in the end the deciding factor will be which one presents itself sooner.
