According to LinkedIn, the second guy (F/O) was in the Norwegian Air Force, and the last guy (relief CA) is Italian.

I fly with lots of guys that aren't American.

Not too long ago, USAir was paying A330 Captains about $160 an hour which is $12,000 a month based on a 75 hour guarantee. Where were you all then?

Just a *wee* bit of difference between those rates under a bankruptcy contract in the midst of one of the darkest decades in airline history and those rates now, when airline profits are higher than ever.
