I came from an RJ and got the 73. Personally I'd love an 18 month seatlock but hey.
I get the point tho.

74 was never a beginners aircraft as it was/is part of the pinnacle set of aircraft flown towards the end of ones career if able to secure it. A total legendary gentleman’s aircraft flown previously flown by the most senior folks wrapping up their careers. It’s definitely in a class by itself in many ways but trained properly most any can fly it, it’s just that it opens up the whole world and not just a continent which provides somewhere to land when faced with an issue. Water water everywhere... or ice flats, mountains, no tigers, bears oh my... maybe white bears...
Overall, it’s still point to point flying nothing cosmic and as routine as you get in the civilian world on most occasions. Experience has never been a qualification someone wished they didn’t have. (I am not citing the “Overqualified” argument).

777s, 787s, A380s, A350s, etc all the heavyweights open up the world with great possibilities and challenges. Amazing that the Queen of the skies has been so relevant and still in production for just a bit longer. Not hard to understand with all the capabilities it brought to the table as the most recognizable tried-and-true platform ever designed. Long haul is not everyone’s cup of tea (74 makes it a lot more comfortable), but for those who enjoy the world, lived abroad or still live abroad it truly is not cookie cutter ops and brings a lot to your table.
