Change my mind.
Change my mind.
Did that change your mind?

Here's a point to be made. How many of the 14,000 pilots on the list benefit with an additional RJ? How many benefit with a new 330/350? And the only reason I bring up 330 is that it is becoming our biggest widebody fleet and will replace the 7ERs in due time. I would shoot for 350s, but the 330 is my 'negotiated' position.
Don't waste time talking about RJs.

Today I show up to work only to see an endeavor pilot with his tie more to the right then straight, blazer undone, no hat, with that orange progress lanyard giving me the look. I think it’s time to reorganize the flying.
