If someone has a chance, I was wondering what the current company seniority (in months) for DFW FO 737 vs A320 is running. If I can’t get one of the S80 slots, I’m looking to get back to DFW as soon as I can.
Last I heard, 737 was still junior, and PHX 320 guys were getting displaced to DFW. Is this still the case? Do both aircraft in DFW have about the same staffing levels/amount of flying? What about variety? I would imagine the 319/320/321 has a wider range of destinations. Thanks in advance to anyone that can help.

But then airbus would be conceding that it was a poor design. Literally the only control one pilot cannot see the other pilot manipulate in the cockpit is the stick.
But I guess it doesn't matter what we think.
