I get the sarcasm. 😂

But for anyone else lurking, the 220 B is overmanned big time, especially NYC. Reserves barely flew this summer. Some had to YS or go for bounces just to keep current. I had 2 mentees with huge difficulties consolidating.

My understanding was that the delivery schedule slipped and the company was OK with that when they did the pull down in June. I think we are making up for that in early 2023.

Probably been asked before, but can’t find much in the search:

Can anyone shed some light on what life is like for a 7ER NH in LAX?

If LAX is the goal, which is the better fleet to target?

They just had a bunch of vacancies. Looking at the bid packet some 3 day hawaii flying (getting taken over by the NEO slowly) , 3-5 day bounce around the country flying (probably the junior trips), 5 day hawaii out of Seattle, Guatemala, El Salvador, sports charters.

Seattle, too. Got a friend that did one 3 day in September and another that did one leg in July. Know a few that consolidated at the wire after an extension.

I wouldn't be at all surprised if ATL 7ER gets it when it starts.

Either one would get you to Sea within 1-2 AE’s if not your initial assignment. Sea320 has gone very Junior the last 2 bids., 125/Seat by Summer to fill out the category. As more Neo’s are delivered it’s slated to take over all Hawaiin flying.
