I think it is not a great a/c to fly for a first officer, since you are really a bit out of the game, all non-normals are handled by the cpt and the engineer, you fly the holding..

In the left hand seat a different story, probably your last chance to experience the old technique.. but be prepared for getting used to a few pages of MEL reading before the flight, plus it is a steep learning curve coming from a glass cockpit
