So I can't see an A330 to A350 course being any longer, probably shorter.

Here's the A350 cockpit... different than the 330 for sure..

There is a short course from the 320 to the 330 currently. I would imagine current fifi drivers on either could do a similar short course to the 350. That cockpit is sweeeeeet! Iceman is exactly right saying that the cockpit is closer to the 380 than the 330.




As far as the 7ER displacements this fall... I kind of doubt much if any would transpire. There's always a big shoulder in the fall, and I doubt they would run much if any displacements with all the retirements coming and just to ramp back up again a few months later. Granted that makes sense so they may do the exact opposite, but I don't see any great reason for alarm. Over all a nice positive bid, though once again not much in the way of offerings for the very senior.


Just flew a trip... I got to get my gatehouse spoon on with DogWhisperer for a moment, and I found the captain that gives F-15/Academy guys a bad reputation. Only two legs with him, but that was more than enough!
