Flew 1611 to CDG yesterday...mucho bueno. From a pax viewpoint it really looks like a brand new airplane. The pilot rest area is tight, but comfy ( I'm 5'11" and 200ish lbs). Very quiet down there and the temp control worked well. Only complaint it the the light inside the "reading light" switch is too bright. FAs were struggling with the new layout, but overall it's a big thumbs up.

6.5 TFP = 5:39 Ex. 3 day trip 16:58
• Duty hour rig is .74 TFP per hour, minimum.
.74 TFP per hour = 39mins per hour
• Reserve guarantee is 90 TFP per month; but actual months pay average around 105 TFP
90 TFP = 78:18 105 TFP = 91:21
• Reserves are allowed to pick-up extra flying.
• Holidays pay 150 percent.
• Open Time trips pay up to 150 percent.
Please take note here....THREE day trip in example....not four.

If you go make sure to ask them about the JV comparisons. Those should be out now. They are back from Europe with all of the data they need.

Weathercaster: The weekends are very tough for me to come in. You can imagine my busy weekend schedule. Besides, this is L.A. What's going to change?

I guess RR wants in on the GTF, maybe they'll hang it off the 767 and call it the 767-9, it would fly circles around the 787...
