I know you fall into that category GE90.. wishful huh??
I believe I have paid my dues including hand flying entire 4.5 hour sectors at FL250 in RNP 5 environment and doing raw data ILS when RVR is 1000 meters gusting 35 knots & DU .. I want to RVSM now.
I dont know what Senior FOs with IX would choose command on B737 or upgrade on B777. I am not sure what position these guys are going to hire for ? Probably a relief/cruise first officer on 777 like cathay or FO on B737 ?? Also a few of the FOs with IX are also members of IPG so what is their plan of action ?? Have to wait and watch.
