That's a bingo!
I got this far into this thread, and decided to quit reading it due to all the negativity here. If you guys are so upset with the condition of the industry, then pack it in, and move on to your backup plan. This place is full of a bunch of people who are just either angry with thier life, or angry with the career they have chosen.
I think I'll stick to the other forum I chat with people on from now on. At least over there it's not a continuios cry fest of disgruntled workers.
You guys need to get your panties out of a wad and either accept it, do something about it or move on! The constant complaining has brought a once fun place to learn and chat with fellow pilots into a place full of arguing and bickering beause "ohhh ohhhhh, your not a union shop, you fly for a 135 outfit! Your destroying our industry!!!!!!" I though that was what your union dues were supposed to do, help support the industry, and preserve it. Looks like they have done a fine job.

Let's not forget why the legacy rates are so bad. When those companies went into Chapter 11 and abrogated their Union contracts, they got the judge to IMPOSE the NON-UNION jetBlue narrow body rate in force at the time.
So, yes, non-Union pilots who work cheap depress EVERYONE'S wages.

What about cheeseeaters who work for better pay, and have the knowledge to negotiate their own pay and bennies? It is sometimes good to work in a non "no child left behind" environment that is performance and dedication based. Just sayin.

If your speaking about ship#904, Boeing has it coded as "B757-204"....Still a 200 series 757.
By "larger", are you referring to the "Pack'em in Sardine Seating Configuration"?? If so, that I buy.
As you say, "A bit larger than 'other' B757's"??
Now I DON'T wear a large watch or drive a Corvette, but I'm sure as much as Allegiant flys in/out of Vegas, you've become familiar with seeing UA (former CAL's) & DAL's B757-300's.....That be the one you need to dial a separate area code when contacting the aft galley.
Still interested on your facts though.....Please expound.
