My understanding is that they assign you MD11 or let you bid based on your seniority for the rest of the choices(based on age). I'm 1968. I stressed the MD in the interview, but 205,000 lbs is the heaviest aircraft and I don't know if it's heavy enough! I've flown BA3200, ATR42/72, B727, MD80 and A319/321. I've done a lot of Caribbean crossings! I do know a good friend that just had domestic and he is in the MD11, although that doesn't seem the norm as of late.
I hope we get a class drop from tomorrow's class. (and a phone call after my whiz quiz results!!)
