1)What does the bottom guy at IAH 757 fly? 2)Also, how much does he get used?
I imagine the flying on the 767 is better so easy choice to do the BAT training. Disclaimer; I am not on the property and do not know much at this point but will return next year.

I'm surprised more UAL, super senior pilots are not more up in arms about this as it prevents true seniority based bidding.

Regarding the SLI, while I concede it's all relative, we all know this was a windfall for the UAL side and whether or not you want to admit that or not is up to you. Just know that I, and others like me, know you know it so don't insult my intelligence.

Just because you know that we know?? Just stick with what you actually know and your own opinions.

Being based in EWR, you have to cover 3 airports ($$$$ tolls and traffic) with 76T fleet for sure, and possibly the 756 if they start juggling the schedules in Jan. Which they might do. Looks they going to be swapping 20 FOs from the 756 to the 76T.

This has become a depressing thread. As an IAH 76T kinda guy I will welcome the new IAH756'ers into the fleet. GRU, EZE, LIM, LHR x 3. I'll buy the beer!

Rumor is that we are pulling out of Argentina 100%. IAH-EZE is the last route to be discontinued in the 1st qtr of next year.
