Classic piece of hyperbole there about the Airbus doing everything the opposite way. Lol
For some, adjusting to the "SCARE BUS" as some people call it, could inject some fun and excitement into the last few years of their career.
I'm sure there's more than enough guys in the first 400ish of legacy AS guys who are senior to what was the most senior VX guy before SLI, who'd be willing to fill the majority of those initial slots.
After all, flying the same type, messing with those knobs and switches on an antiquated panel for the last 20 to 30 years does get old, so the appeal of a newer, sexier, not to mention much roomier flight deck, might just be too hard to resist.
