Aside from the downside of occasionally having to fly with Ferd.
Thanks Wilbur! I have been keeping my eye on the trips and you're right. I haven't seen any bad ones. Yeah, I live about 30 minutes up 405 on the eastside so sitting reserve is not a problem. Kids are all out of the house now (youngest just started freshman year at WSU) so I'm not that worried about getting holidays off anymore. The displacement, well I cannot do anything about that. If it happens, it happens. I really like the 76/757 so it's really a no loose situation.
Actually that will be a downside for Ferd!
He's gonna have to be my seeing eye FO........I hope he's up to the job!
My anxiousness comes from never having been to an Airbus school on top of not going to a new aircraft school for a looooong time. I'm sure once I get into it, it will go fine. I've had a lot of guys offer their expertise in case I run into questions in training and that will definitely help!
