Guess which base (hint hint 4 month upgrade to MD-88 captain) has the most commuters that would benefit greatly from a VB without messing with the rest of the system?
that's my perception. of course we used to have a bos base, but as a vb that would be the first likely candidate.
nyc is surrounded by potential candidates.....and its certain the models have already been run by mgmt.
it is an interesting door that is being opened with this concept. certainly technology has advanced to a point one could contemplate 20 years out.....a large percentage of pilots outside of atl could operate in a VB system. That's going to be something you young pilots will have to sort out....
