Or the BOS 320 base? MCO 7ER base? As a buddy of mine in the Navy used to say "We don't lie, the truth changes"

The 350-1000 is coming to Delta, and it will surpass the 330-900 as the most beautiful jet at Delta. The triple bogey main gear returns to the Widget soon
I think most people know the 350-1000 is coming but people are getting tired of waiting for an announcement and rumors of when it will be announced.

Lets be honest we technically already have the 350-1000…I see them everyday I go to work

don’t count your chickens before they hatch…in this case there aren’t even eggs to count, let alone chickens.

Barf. That's some of the most obnoxious Shiny Jet Syndrome I've seen in a long time. Bet you'd give management a pay cut if they promised to bring the jet here for it. You're not at the regionals any more. All you should care about is the view from the cockpit and the pay check.

How many times have you come on here with some kind of propaganda from your handlers on the 4th floor trying to manipulate line pilots, and been proven wrong? How many times have you tired to explain away mgmt's malfeasance? When are you going to get tired of being management's useful idiot?

They are operating our 787's as well......like they say, "why buy the cow when the milk is free?"

Hopefully this google search of Virgin Atlantic pay rates is very inaccurate, cause this milk, if not free is certainly cheaper than our milk:

Google:
So, exactly how much can I earn as a Virgin Atlantic pilot?
First Officer Captain
Starting: $45,500 Starting: $88,200
Average: $58,380 Average: $126,100
Top: $79,800 Top: $143,000

these numbers seem to be in line with what I’ve heard elsewhere. Although in £ not $.

it was told to me by someone who was friends with a few airfrance pilots that they top out around €200,000/year

Pilots in the UK/Ireland have historically been severely underpaid, even compared to pilots on the Continent. Hence why so many temp at the ME3.

What are the benefits like? Do they get summer sabbaticals and pensions? Can’t they strike whenever they want? Don’t get those rates.

Let's not forget the LATAM 787's or the Aero Mexico 787s parked at our gates.
