AMEN!!! God I'm glad somebody besides me sees the logic in that ClipperJet. It'll never happen, though. When I'm pushing 60 (no way in HELL am I working to 65), I certainly don't want to be flying international, but unless I win the lottery between now and then, I'll probably have to do it for the money. Speaking as a heavy driver on Mil Leave from NWA, flying overseas and back, over and over and over, day after day, year after year, wears on you. I'd like to ease into my retirement years flying out and backs where I can sleep in my own bed most nights.....leave the oceanic crossings for the young guys. Additionally, if we saved on training costs, that would undoubtedly be good for the company.... heaven forbid unions do anything to help the company out.
