Yup! Choosing the 88 is like being handed a blank check.
With the # of new hires arriving in 2020, when the displacement ultimately comes you’ll be able to write that check for whatever aircraft and base you want that any of the hundreds of NHs behind you have gotten in their drop.
You’ll also have the benefit of hindsight to see where seniority is trending and make your choice and slide right in through the displacement.
And you’ll have the T-shirt for having flown a true McDonnell Douglas product.
