New hire into the bus. I sat reserve for 1 month. Getting awarded VTO (Secondary) lines since now. Getting all trips with a bunch of DHs that conveniently pass though my home airport. Most trips at night but I am enjoying the ride. Grateful for opportunity.

"If you have certain special skills, you may be selected to fly the MD-11, MD-10."
I have tried to notice international, where the MD has flown through. The only place I can remember is TPE and ANC. I would probably be hired into the MD I am assuming because of my experience. I only want international and would volunteer in an instant for (I know 76 base) HKG or anything with lots of long HKG layovers (777). Is the MD mostly domestic? Thanks, tried to find info on this but could not turn anyting up.
A plan at 15 years any idea on the amount? Guessing 10 years as F/O then upgrading maybe the last five years. Four bars honestly means nothing to me, I would rather have max time off and some control of my schedule and vacation.

2) Do any of your special skills involve making and/or pouring coffee?
3) How do you feel about domestic four legs a night?
4) Would you be willing to change your username?

I'm ANC based. The trip I'm on now goes ANC-MEM-HNL-SYD-HKG-TPE-ANC. My next trip is ANC-MEM-CDG-DEL-DXB-HKG-TPE-d/h ANC. Lots of international flying for the ANC base (it's all international).
Are you a good pilot? Because you have to be GOOD to ride the thoroughbred.

Although I guess that now, you don't even have to be that.
