then transfer to a nice EVA 747-400

Great plane. Along with Flight Technique Analysis, I got a chance to completely dissect and learn how to program the 744's FMC and do an entire overview on the systems (the only thing lacking from a type rating course is we didn't have to worry about numbers).

The 900 is a sweet plane and the profitability is just amazing (26 pax to start turning a profit). Not bad for a ninety seat airplane.

The 900 is a good plane, but I fail to see how a 200 can turn a profit. I think the new Embraer's that Jet Blue are getting are gonna be the best. I also like the 717 a whole lot, gonna be flying one of those on the 747 trip also.

America West is gonna announce a new jet order soon, I really hope they pick up some 757-300's, Boeing is giving them away in an attempt to keep the line open. They have to get a good transcon plane, and I doubt they will go 737-700/800/900 as it is uncommon with their existing 300's.

Don't even get me started about the A321....bleah...
