Being trapped on a NB when you want a larger jet does suck. Hopefully future bid and the 76 passover grievance will fix some of that. But looking at from a total pilot group, it would be nice if there were even fewer pure narrow body lines. Having more 76 pilots instead of 75 pilots means higher paychecks, better seniority for guys on higher paying jets, more B fund money for the pilots and more dues for ALPA. The losers in this shift are the guys who want to camp for seniority on the NB lines...the handwriting says there will be fewer of those going forward.
