It is very quiet and roomy.

From a pilot standpoint, it also pays more.

Two words... longevity pay. Who cares about the airframe?

I am saying it would not surprise me.

LOL. As a former ER pilot that I understand! (Although it's a nice plane, I'm still not thrilled about "flying" the bus) My point is anytime we can swap an aircraft for a larger plane that pays more I'm all for it.

If we got a chance to swap 8 A330s for 8 B744s I'd be all over that too. That's coming from a southie who's fenced off the 744.

You wouldn't be fenced then...

all Eastern time

Do they process swap with pot requests at the same times?

Or is that once a day/processed differently

Not true. The fence will still apply.

Swaps are run at the same times as WS and drops, but AFTER WS and drops.

I believe the order is, Drops first, then White Slips, then Swaps.


All times are GMT -8. The time now is 06:44 PM.
