PH,
Well, AKL is a heck of a nice city to be based in. I was considering taking the RHS76 as I think we are OK for pilots on my fleet until Nov. But, it wasn't an offer yet, so I couldn't guerentee a job if I took LWOP; likely, but maybe not. The other thing is the pay cut, which is hard to justify considering I have a good job and to leave this one to take less money/benefits would not help anyone.
If your useing it to get to AKL though, and you can handle the sub-standard pay then great. But i think the 727 freight guys get paid more.
And FBH, thanks for the info. I didn't make it past the Narita Pilots Club/Cage circuit last week. . .must be getting old.
