330=unhappy

I have just flown with my third FO in a month who is leaving for a European LCC job. One of the big issues with these guys is junior FO's are being moved over to 380 while they rot on the 330/340. This means when and if they get to the 380 they will have Captains that will be 3 years their junior. Now this may sound like an argument for joining the 330 fleet now, but its not. It's an argument to state that the company moves who it wants when it wants. So when you join on the 330 it could be for 2 years or until the fleet goes away sometime after 2018, more likely 2020. Whatever they tell you in the interview may be true only for that fraction of a moment, but it will most certainly change. But hey record low oil prices means record profit share!!
