Actually, I think a lot of us in the 747 just care about the pay beyond year 1, not the aircraft. In fact, while I enjoy some of the 747 flying, I would rather be flying domestic on the 767 with no more than 3 time zones to cross...but the pay difference hurts. Let's make it one pay rate in new contract and see who ends up in which fleet.
Of course...there ARE some pilots that just "have to fly the 747"....
