Joe,
When I checked out as a captain at NWA the first time in 2000, the majority of my OE was done in a DC-9-10 (70 seats) and I was happy to be in it. Nine years later, I haven't had a change of heart. The only thing that has changed is that you are flying my little airplane. (And I use the word "my" loosely. I know I don't own it, but we sure gave it away.)
