I know that you have probably answered this question before but, the schedule that you pick is A319/A320 specific? They won’t have you fly an A319 one leg and the next leg fly a B737-800?

Billy,

That’s correct. Even though a pilot may be type-rated in multiple airplanes, the company only allows pilots to fly the plane that they are assigned to. If a pilot wants to fly a different plane that pilot would have to place a bid for their preferred aircraft, seat and base. The bid would then need to be awarded and the pilot would then need to complete training. The pilot is officially assigned to a new aircraft upon successful completion of training.

Billy,

I only fly the A319 and A320 right now. To fly any other type of airliner requires several weeks of training and the FAA only allows pilots to fly one kind of airplane at a time. Good question.

I see on the 11th you ended in ORD, do you get deadheaded back home or do you have to find your own flight home?

The company provided me with positive space travel to my home of Norfolk, VA. I was paid for deadheading back to EWR, as that is my base, but went straight to ORF instead.
