I'm inclining more & more to make the same jump perhaps this year. The big variable is the time frame of closing the MEM -9 base, as is rumored lately. Interesting times!!! I view this as one of those 'choice between two good things' that life occasionally hands you. Good luck in your choices...
Hi Chuck,
I made the jump to the DC-9 when the freighters got parked. I told myself I would give it a year and see if it grows on me. Well, it didn't. I'm not really onto the 5 legs a day type of flying and I started having Gaoza withdraws. Anyway, just checking my options. That is the great part of working for a airline this size, tired of flying intl, did domestic, tired of flying domestic, bid intl. Good luck to you also.
