Great post and dead on! I tell my wife all the time I'd give my two front teeth to fly my old TWA 757 LAX red eyes again. The ones I used to loath! You do not realize how great one has it until it is taken away (just a general statement here, not opening up past postings
). But I am very afraid that I will never have that same feeling at my new home. Since 2001 it has really taken a toll (mentally and physically) on myself and family and I do not know if it will ever be the same. That is why I said, knowing what I know now....... I would have done something different.
Hey, any way you cut it, red eyes suck! But you are correct, we never really realize how good we have it until something happens.
On a brighter note, AA just announced a second recall class in April (April 15) for another 15 recallees, bringing the total to 35 pilots in April. (I know, small increase but heading in the right direction.)
Good luck bro.
Getting myself psyched up for the MOARE "Mother of All Red Eyes (JFK-EZE-JFK - double all nighter.)
