Why would you want to?

I know it is sexy machine but lets face it you don't do many hours on the stick. And after seeing pictures of some of the cracks in the airframe it takes someone with alot of balls or utter faith in fracture mechanics to get in it.

I would much prefer 4 sectors a day working my backside off, in and about europe (at least for the first few years). Then go for the new boeing if it's got a front lounge instead of a cockpit like the 777 has.
