AffirmBrest,
Nice reply re the 330 - but lets actually look at the benefits of flying it....
1. Doing the crossword for 9 hours in AltCrz!In between all the ETOPS stuff of course..
2. 24 hour (48 if its IAD on a Tuesday) turnarounds, instead of 10 hours in the GLA Thistle.
3. No night charter flights (yet), that leave you just as fu**ed as longhaul <<being awake at 4am and sleeping in the afternoon, carrying luggage everywhere and having no mates>>, only you do 3 in a row and then do four late BFS or similar!!
4. Minimum of 3 days off every week!!
5. The 330 really is the dogs blx to fly. Makes the 320 seem small and twitchy.
6. 11 crew, in flight entertainment and a satphone to make those important calls (pizza delivery, wife etc)
7. Showing off to girls about your high MTOW!!
8. NO EARLIES!!!!!!
Enjoy the summer charter season!
Cheers
Busta
