Yawwwwn. Who the heck cares? Does anybody really get a kick from their VSI? Or by getting to cruise in 15 minutes instead of 20? It’s a transport category aircraft, it’s not going to be thrilling based on performance.
Also, you are just as much a programmer on the 757 as on any other fleet.
Bid an aircraft for base, pay, comfort, trips, or seniority. But do not bid it for “performance.”
