Have only done 1 night turn to India in the last 2 years and that was in the summer and worked for my roster(airbus). With max 14 days off a month both fleets are evening out. Being MFF helps. Dont think the 380 is going to come at a slow pace, once its on track they will come fast and furious.777 is the bigger fleet so more pairings to pick from.332 was to start retiring in 07 but that seems to be on hold. Guys seem to think GOL on the 380 is going to be very good to start.777 is presently over crewed which helps the rosters now, cant see that going on to long.If you come from an Airbus backgroung stay AB and if you come from a Boeing background go 777, it keeps things simple and that might be a very good thing, just talk to someone who has had a problem durring training.
