Cool. Shot ya PM.

Surprised you guys are saying the 76 would be the best choice over the 75 for schedules/flexibility, etc.. A lot of guys are remembering how it USED to be. There really is not much trip trading and almost zero open time for the last several months so not much you can do with your schedule anyway. Its much better to gain seniority and the 75 is without doubt, the best place to go as a new hire and you will gain fleet seniority the fastest.

Did you miss the sentence that ends “...only domestic west coast...”

nope.. 75s go to OAK, LAX, RNO, LAS, PHX, TIJ, etc..

The 767 does a whole lot more west coast flying than any other fleet.

I agree and would consider the 757 if it is there; take the seniority. It’s a marathon not a sprint.

I’m a civilian Regional/LCC guy as well and can appreciate the desire to see the west coast, but the west coast will be there in a few years. Further, and as mentioned, the 75 has some west coast. The bid pack domestically is better on the 76 and MD when compared to the 757, but living in base will allow a lot of flexibility with the seniority gain of the 757.

I would take the seniority also and figure out what you like. The Bus and MD aren’t going anywhere soon, matter of fact, they may start going more and more junior and could be a good place to go and keep some seniority on a later bid. While, I don’t by into the doom and gloom, you never when things are going to slow.

Plus, the 757 is a blast to fly and I always had a lot of fun on the weekend layovers while on the 727/757.

That is definitely a true statement!
