EFA is not going to make you rich, but it is a lifestyle job. The guys on the 737 aren't even hitting 500hrs this year with a MINIMUM 3 day weekend EVERY weekend. The 767 guys don't do much more than 500hrs per year (2 days per week) and the 744 guys are forecast to do less than 500hrs per year.
Sure, you'll make more money at other airlines, but you'll work nearly twice as hard.
Each to their own. Some chase money, others chase lifestyle.
And yes, the 744ERF has 30hrs odd total time and plastic on the seats. Never flown a single commercial sector. It is BRAND NEW, but 3 1/2 years old.
