Fadec aka, climb well above FL180 better than the -200
2 FMS heads
Meals on long legs (-200 limited to 750mi)
Forward lav (worthless when doing less than 750 mi legs)
CA's make more, FO slightly more than -200... But living on reserve longer.
In the end, -200 FO will make more in first 18 months. Do the math.
That's it.
As long as I remember the exit sign halfway down the cabin, my head is safe on the 200. I'm happy on the 200, don't see a point jumping fleets right now.
