The 757 looks like a sports car, flies like sport….utility vehicle. A big American made SUV, not the sporty European ones.

Thanks a lot everybody for your contributions!

Indeed European philosophy of aviation and situation is specific and to talk subjectively, pretty poor in terms of variety and opportunities.

Despite having a lot of experience in turboprops and with aerial work around the world (humanitarian in Africa, pistons around Europe, some hobby aviation in Australia, etc...) that led me to unfreeze my ATPL quite early while joining the airline cargo world (was missing night hours), there was no consideration of that experience anywhere at anytime while joining an airline.

We fly very low hours and career opportunities are slim to nome. That's why a type change is a big thing for us I guess...

I will most probably follow the path that brings better opportunities with the upgrade. The hesitation also came from the fact that widebody experience can be useful indeed. Something for something I guess, no good or bad choice.

I wish everybody a Merry Christmas and happy time with your ones!

Sorry for thinking you were a troll. The embarrassment is made worse by being a EU guy myself. Shows how out of touch I am with the old world.

Merry Christmas.

Hey no worries, I understand the question might raise some doubts.
I am anyway affraid that nothing will really bring us anywhere better in the near future in Europe, the situation even in cargo is not the brightest. That's why I think the choice is important to avoid taking the worst of any option given.
Anyway Happy New Year again and thanks for the contributions!
