When I level off at cruise altitude I press the max continuous button in the FMS, Waters and over the mountains. 😳

Never have to worry about all that if you never flow over real mountains or water. Heck, my last trip I never got above FL290. On the bright side, less radiation/cancer concerns lol.

One overlooked reason the 765 is better than the 330/350. Airbus is the high altitude radiation champion.

True WB A is already 4500 and I can see it dropping more through 2024. Add in a "few dozen" here likely offsetting 763s, and WB A will really come down. Great time to be a Delta Air Line Pilot.
