Cheers A&C and gaf15,

Some basic Thomson questions if you don't mind:

1. For 737 fleet flying, is most of the flying out-and-backs to base or do 737 crews lay over at destinations as well?

HOME EVERY NIGHT BAR SOME SSH NIGHTSTOPS OR OUT OF BASE ROSTERING

2. Probably already reviewed, but what are the most likely open bases for 737 newhires?

REGIONAL BASES CWL NCL


3. Lastly, I presume with new 787s arriving, the 767 fleet will be replaced over time and the number of 767/757 crews will decline over time as pilots are displaced to other fleets. What is the likelihood that 737 pilots will be able to transition to the 757s after a seat-lock period or even bid junior FO on the 787 after a few years? Will the 757s be sticking around in the medium term (5-10 years) or will they be replaced by incoming 737-800s over the next few years?

BID FOR WHAT YOU WANT BUT WORK ON 5YEARS BEFORE A 787. LONG LIST NOW AFTER THE EIS AIRCRAFT
