That's true, I forgot about the block hour increase. The new 738s and 319/321 can handle more hours in a day than those ragged out MD80s. I want the flow to work, just not putting all my stock in it. From what I hear from mainline usairways pilots, things are really senior and stagnate. I've heard the opposite at at United, but again that's all hearsay.
