NS trips

Indeed, NS are mostly two day trips. However, there are also days with double flights and a triangle (e.g: cdg-dub-cdg-dub NS- dub-lcy-dub-lcy-dub NS-idem NS- dub-cdg-bhx-cdg-bhx NS- bhx-cdg =>OFF days A hard week indeed, but it keeps you busy till the WE...
TRansition from BAe 146 to RJ 85-100 is wonderful. The opposite can be troublesome for some pilots: 146 has no A/T- NO EFIS (CityJet ones) and limited GNS.
RJ 85-100 has GNS-X/GPS-IRS's-Autoland-CATIII-RVSM. A much nicer system, a little more complex to operate, though.
