not on money but the life u want to live, and the environment u want to fly in.

Airline pilots fly with instruments, a gray windshield, and land to the same old runways for 40 years.  Sound interesting?  Go for it.

Since this is a heli forum the opposite is obvious.

Helicopter operators tend to be a tad unstable so if that's ur choice keep a good money reserve because u will be changing employers.  The best stability is corporate but that can be similar to airline tedium.

Just jump in and figure it for yourself.
