PSA or Endeavor to fly the 900

[Autothrust Blue]

Years ago, as a somewhat senior FO (dual qualed on the 200 and 700) I went through a several month period were every single day I was pulled off my nice 200 line, with nice overnights, and thrown on an uncovered 700 trip because none of our reserves were 700 qualified. So the junior guy got my great trip and I ended up with an Akron overnight.

It's nice not having any reroute language or obligations.

It's nice having real language.

You're preaching to the converted on this one, sir.

I just had the line guy explain to me how he was going to be at Delta in three years and it made me think of this thread.

With an Akron overnight that was a real possibility.
