Financially it makes sense to get A380 DECs. You save a conversion...
but.... your most important asset will get XXX@%@#$...
Differential pay will never happen. It just taking from peter to give to paul... doesnt really affect the bottom line, unless they get really drastic. With more and more A380 coming that will only drive up the total salary expense.

The last 380 Captain I met was averaging 45 hours a month, whereas every 777 Captain I have the pleasure of flying the worlds best aircraft with, flies 85+ and aren't we getting more 777s than 380s next year? I think this is a windup

World's best aircraft. Yeah, 777 not bad, but I'd rather fly on 380 for damn sure

It's like with that fat chick, ey Whitey?
It's fun to ride her, but you don't want to be seen with .....
We'll see at the end of the year when 33/34 captains will be held back on their old metal, due to numbers, and T7 guys will transfer to the dugong.
If there's a run, you're damn right! If the applicants have numbers exceeding 390k and lot of us politely declined, you're not.
Apart from that 380 DECs don't make sense.

Scandi,
Care to share those delivery numbers? Think you may be mistaken about that too.
Good to see an optimist though.

Ex A380-800 Driver
Re WK being on the A380. You have just ruined my day
Not bad for an ex BAE 146 Driver. Somewhat surprised he has not been boasting about it though
