I do have to admit that what we are doing now for TOE is much nicer. I go to CDG on Wednesday. We'll have a LCA and a seeing eye dog FO from ATL going with us for the first time using the Delta procedures. Smart IMHO.
The NWA way was A (as in one) class and a slap on the butt for my first time over to AMS. We did have the nicer "cookbook" in the QRM, but the Capt hadn't been to AMS since his DC-10 FO days and I'd never been.
Like I said, I like this better.
