Default Captain Doug Taylor? (actually FO on the 767ER)
I could have easily held it in JFK/LGA/NYC on the MD-88, so I had to steal a little of Cap'n Bob's thunder.

But! I've finally been awarded 767-300ER >>>FO<<< International out of NYC! Not sure when I'll enter training yet, but I'm excited about the change!

Woo hoo!

Hell, but no early morning shows, 99% European flying and I've got pretty respectable seniority!

considering phx-jfk starts in february.. it might not be too bad.. but if they ever stop that commute, it'll suck cuz he'll have to go thru either cvg or atl to get there.

let's hope they don't drop that line again anytime soon....

I understand you're going to International 767, but I'm confused whether you are doing so as FO or Capt? Presuming FO...



Either way, GRATS dude!

Good seniority too which is amazing!

BTW, the junior captain in the system is a 2000 hire.

They usually post the training date a few days after the initial award so I'll know before the end of the trip I'm on.

Unfortunately, it might be out now but I'm working on the database and have to take off in another 30 minutes.

HECTIC tuesday.
