The Enhanced Voluntary Severance (I have some difficulty with the Company's idea of enhanced) package appears to have yielded 7 or 8 volunteers so far. There may be more negotiating quietly behind the scenes but either way, these numbers won't lead to much, if any, recruitment on their own given the Company's wish to both reduce the number of Captains and use those that remain more efficiently (aka work harder).

Experienced on Space Shuttle and Concorde.
Neither are EFIS - you could not possibly cope with a glass screen. Obviously.

Space shuttle
But think how much fuel he would save in the descent!

I got a PFO for boeing also.

Terms and Endearment forum? Pah! They should start a PFO forum. Much more scope for conversation.
