The old worn out adage "boxes don't bitch" appeals to me. I don't like dealing with people's bullshite. Already had some prick yelling he's going to kill everyone on the jet.

Like you said, good pay and work rules, lots of deadheads. An unfortunate amount of night flying, but hell I've been doing a lot of night flying in the narrow body domestic rat race.

I know you don't won't to hear it but the bus is the shite. Lazy baw's jet. Lucky for me I still have the military to make me feel like a pilot as opposed to a systems manager.

I don’t mind back if the clock flying. Can’t wait to go to a cargo airline.

you should see what a different galaxy the 777/787, hell even the 757/767 are in, in that regard

you're in a great spot, FedEx is, and has been a well kept secret, a lot more day time flying than people realize, a lot less weekend flying, and the deadheading is business class or better the last I heard, although I did hear a rumor about a change in that, depending on int'l/dom
