By the way Ex380, we were both right on the A330 upgrade failure rate. It was 6 of 8 in the last group, 8 of 8 failed in the group before. Another year in the right seat doing night turns to Jeddah will surely get those 14 guys squared away. Them and the ones that fail this month. And all the others who never even made it through the upgrade interview or psych eval. (Yes, the 777 upgrade success rate is better)
And it’s 1 white 330 parked over by the maintenance hangar waiting to go, not 2. So we were both wrong on that one. Looks like EAL. Only 2 other A330s have left, to China last year. No others slated to go this year. Still leaves better than 30 of them hanging around to stink up our rosters for a long, long time to come.
