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!

I'm jealous.....I grew up out there and would love to get back. Bellevue, Redmond, Kent, Moses Lake, Vancouver. All my flying prior to Dal was the western U.S. and Canada. I get all excited when my maddog see's a real mountain. Navigation was easy, volcanoes on one side and the ocean on the other. We used to go to WSU to pick up mom's and daughters on mom's weekend. Too bad the airport at eastgate and the one in Issaquah are gone. If my wife decides she's had enough of me I'm gonna head west and be the plug in Seattle.
