- no night override/ international pay
- would likely be bottom rsv guy
If I do it, do I want to be Boston or JFK based? (Commute is about the same.)
Very on the fence. I’m a family guy at heart and think this flying stuff is for the birds, (I fly min schedule) However, a normal sleep schedule is appealing.
Discuss.
Depends on how many days off you get as a line holder on the 320. Guessing if you were bottom reserve guy on the bus you don’t get that many days off as a lineholder.
