I apologize for any missed terms in my post, still learning.
The mx is hit or miss like most of the fleets and has been lower lately with scheduling using them to recover smaller airplane trips too much. The FDP is on the low side. The Lattitude and 350 are the kings of FDP. The seat lock is the same as all the others for the Globals. The training is longer- likely a month+ in Columbus with some days off in there, but not enough for the company to send you home. That month+ is on top of basic indoc training that you will likely do before the sim.
