I'm sure most of you have heard this but I've heard the plan is, when the last 777 is parked in the desert, a Maddog crew will be giving the 777 guys a ride home.

Yes, for many of the same reasons NYC 7ER B is a new hire seat. Nobody wants to sit reserve in NYC and cover multiple airports only to progress to lineholder with trips that are un-commutable on both ends.

Initial drop may be a bit of a stretch, but I could see it going to a probationary pilot.

Are you kidding, we doubled the size of the category! Every 767 pilot is an ER pilot now.
