the main goal seems to be to cut through all the BS, and to save you from paying someone to play hot and loose with your money for an exorbitant fee.

I wouldn’t say that is true after the shift away from the 767 is complete. It’s likely DAL will have 65+350’s and near 100 330 by the end of the decade with the 764’s hangin in there. . I would expect to see the true WB positions go beyond 5000 in the next 5-10 years.

Leaving AA at 3 years for DAL
Put it in perspective.. I'm 38 and if I got hired by delta 2 months ago (while I was waiting on an AA class) I'd never see 330 or 350 CA (there would have to be a lot of growth). Maybe the plug on the 767-4 but definitely on rsv. My age 65 seniority would be around 4000.
At AA I'll be around 1900 with mandatory retirements.

I think the poster is probably trying to refer to our combined 757 and 767-300ER (7ER) category. How long would it take to get to the left seat in a true WB category, because the 7ER category is not paid at our WB rates.
The 767-400 is a separate category.

it’s mainly just a resource for people looking to run their own simple index fund setup and is very much against day trading, market timing or exotic investments. Also a great place to ask questions about investing, retirement, insurance, taxes, LTD, etc, from people who actually dealt with that issue, in this industry. The guys that run it have no agenda, collect no money, allow no politics, allow no selling of anything. They’ll even help vet financial planners if you choose to go that route.

Based on current orders and acquisitions from LATAM, DL is on track for 44 x A-350's and 80 x A-330, so your 65+/100+ seems a bit lofty IMO.

Airlines don't need as many "true widebodies" anymore. Delta/United/AA will all probably park their 767/757 fleets and not replace them 1 for 1.
Those piece of **** 321s that can fly for 8 hours at FL200 will probably be their replacement.

Go to DL. AA management wants to run their flag carrier like a commuter airline. There are hundreds of senior Group 4 F/Os hiding from the bad quality of life in Group 2 even though they could easily upgrade. Is that the way you want to spend the next 30 years of your career?
I think you meant to say every single one. WB FO is senior to NB CA. There are tons of 30+ year FOs on the WB. It’s gotten worse as our long haul flying continues to contract.

AA will never park their 757/767 fleet.
