And as an aside, I have a buddy who is a Captain on the Guppy. He told me of a recent hire who won't bid the 757 because he can't fly steam gauges. We both laughed. The 757 is a steam gauge?!

Flap 15 Improved out of Denver on a 90-degree day. Dive bombing into NYC at night on the STAR. ONE DME, no green arc, no PROG page, no VNAV. ****ty AP, tuning a new VOR every 3 minutes....etc. What was it, the Milford, or something?? Now that was flying!

I'd bid it again in a heartbeat.
