Going from 47 or 87 to the 777 does not require a full course. It's a differences course for both. Still gonna keep TK busy for a while that is true, and if history is any indicator some folks will be able to game the system and stay at home waiting for training for many months.

Personally I just want to get it over with and move on hopefully to growing the wide body fleet in 2018. I've got my eye on 756 CAP in EWR but over the last year I actually went backwards 2% on that list. I moved up over 20% on the 737 CAP list to just under 50% now, but those 756 Caps at the top are "dug in". Ah well . . . 20 years in the right seat . . . what's another year or two
