      With a bit over 1000 deliveries it got its fair share of market. Still is widely used by Delta in America and by United for transatlantic routes. Can be modifies for cargo, serving for FedEx and UPS until there are literally no more spare parts being manufactures. Plane spotters love. Given that the aircraft is a bit niche, I wouldn’t say it is underrated. A321ceo has more sells, but it is noticeably cheaper to operate.

    This was my goal and dream growing up. However, times were different then. Much more competitive back in the 80s. No pilot shortage and the industry was smaller than today and was peppered with ex military pilots. I am fortunate to have been able to own a Cessna 172 and a Piper Comanche with a couple of great partners. At 63, now I only live vicariously through videos like this. Good job Swayne.

      Again thank you for sharing your cool career. Yes, I now and remember how it feels in holding your travel work schedules!😊 Yes, years ago, at first, as a Flight Attendant, I use to bid Hawaii first, London second on the international trips. Then on domestic trips, I use to bid Los Angeles first San Francisco second and San Diego third. Then when I took and passed the Purser Leadership Program back then, I became a junior purser flight attendent and started to hold my work schedules on an A/B rotation. Holding a work schedule or "line" one month and the next month not holding a line. I think for me by the end of the 3rd year going into the 4th year, I could finally hold more flight schedules that I would bid for. So, holdibg west coast from here in Chicago is what I hold and liked. Overall, I agree with you similar to pilots, it feels good holding your own work schedule and it helps as you become more senior with each year of seniority.😊
