I'm dying for some similar time zone shizzle or some "premium widebody international pay." Haven't seen it and now probably never will.
How's the small bus FNWA guys?
It's HORRIBLE!!!! All TPA-LAX Redeyes! If you want to keep your sanity STAY AWAY!!!!!
I keed, I keed. It's a great airplane and I miss it.
Very roomy, fairly comfortable. I'm not sure how the trips will be out of SLC, but out of DTW I enjoyed them. Most days never had more then 2 legs, usually just your first or last day had 3 legs. Occasionally they will sneak a 4 leg day in on ya, but overall it's a great airplane.
Although, since you're a Boeing guy I'm not sure you could get comfortable with the whole sidestick commanding a roll rate several laws of flight controls kinda thing! Then there is that weird tray table in front of you, and with the Auto Throttles engaged the Thrust Levers dont move!!
Ya know what, it's pretty scary. You should probably just stay away!
