No offense taken I just felt like you were trying to stir up a hornets nest. If not, I apologize as well.

I personally don’t see myself as a general leading his troops to war. But I see the word commanding meaning responsibility and leadership. That’s all. Definitely not advocating authoritarianism in the cockpit.

Gotcha. I was not trying to stir anything up. This response actually makes a lot of sense to me. I mean, I definitely agree that it's a lot of responsibility and not to be taken lightly; maybe I just had a weird idea in my head about it. This makes sense though.

By under 40 are you referring to age, years of service, number of cats, or number of bags?

-We have 50 or so ERs and we may be down to 15 in 5 years. They are coming East for now
-The A330 is an ER killer.
-The plan is to replace the round dials/gauges with an integrated ADI and different ND
I’d love for them to do the last one, but as of now the adi and nag dispalays are being replaced with lcds that look the exact same and the airspeed gauge is also being replaced with a lcd that will display the same analog airspeed gauge

as of last week we were only losing a handfull of ERs in the next 5 years

Wow, I just looked and at some seniority levels the 7ER category is actually junior to the 320 category in Atlanta. Crazy times.
