It's okay to fly an airplane that when hand flying you forget the AP is OFF and start to cuss at it for not following the FCU commands because it just stays smooth and still. It's okay to like every landing. it's okay to get ebola for flying it. And to go blind. And impotent to where blue pills dont help. And to die early. The damn thing is a death trap. The french and germans have been bombing us since pearl harbor and they've finally figured out how to do us in. ####. |

Lol right, comfort trumps so much! I love when Boeing guys pound their chest about how they actually "fly the plane." If you want to really fly a plane, go buy yourself a tailwheel and be a real pilot.

BS has been saying they will downsize the 220 category as soon as they open the SEA base. I would probably take that last if I wanted SLC. 737 is also done with deliveries so it won’t move much like it has the last year. With more than 100 320’s coming, I would bid 320,737,220.

FWIW there are 131 A321s to go. Still 31 CEOs and then 100 Neos and supposedly they want to exercise their options for another 100 Neos of potentially various types.

I agree. I would not be surprised if Network changes their mind to ATL350
"They" say the A350 is going to replace the B777 in LAX (surprised Delta legal didn't have them do it on this AE 🙄😁). I guess they will get PVG back, and (possibly) HND and ICN to get you to the three magical departures. (Not sure how SYD is covered afterwards based on current A350 capabilities and SYD alternate requirements). That being said, ATL seems like a good bet too seeing as it will have three daily departures based on the current ICN and NRT (soon to be HND) departures plus the upcoming AMS departure. Not sure if the additional 6 jets jets will support flying from 3 bases though. |

I'll agree with you on this one. 😊

Lots of conflicting opinions here :D
I saw the August 2020 bid and 737/320/220 SLC all were 14000 employee number so I read that as sort of I can get in on any of the 3 airframe? Then again who knows if I'm reading that incorrectly... Welcome aboard! Denny |

The latest A350 deliveries are a higher gross weight option from what I understand and they are SYD capable frames.

I think there are enough SLC 220 people itching to go to SEA that even the plug is going to keep SLC if they want it.
Lots of 320’s coming and heading west. Be easy to get to SLC on the 320 in the next year. |
