A330 cannot do what the 777F can do, but it is cheap. So you may be right.
Is 757D that bad? Shocked there is a 400 number seniority spread from the most Junior Z Captain to the junior Domestic Captain last mock. That's crazy.
Now the question is, to bid the Z or 747?

The A330F (based on the -200) doesn't carry much more volume than the 767-300F does, but it can carry more weight and has more range.
The A330-300 P2F has volume very close to the MD11...but its payload and range capability is only a hair better than the 767.

Does anyone know if any of the upcoming 747 training will be out of Anchorage?
DEN, MIA, etc? Not really wanting to go to Alaska in Feb. Sheraton or not.
I have heard rumors the 757 training will have some slots outside of Louisville? And recurrent.
