Default question for NWA guys

I was wondering how your asia schedules work. If you are on the 330 or 400, do you deadhead out to the far east and then work? What is a typical schedule on the 747 in a month

330 and 747-400 have departures from SEA/ and DTW/MSP...however you may have to DH to NRT to pick up a trip...same with 757 pilots

Not really...Compost is really designed to ensure that the furloughed never get back to NWA......

Pre CH-11 it did...I remember flying an 8 day trip, 6 pac (3 round trip crossings...as I recall DTW-NRT, NRT-MSP, MSP-NRT,NRT-DTW, DTW-NRT, NRT-DTW..avg 12 hours per leg; 72 hours. Not sure if we still do that or whether an inter-port trip is tagged in there as well to make it 82 hours or so...ahh those were the good ole days................

This is Tread Creep, but I have to ask. Where did you get that picture of that Hot Mom? Or maybe it's your wife.
