400=upper deck 777=no upper deck. Should be an easy choice.

400=marketable. 777=much more marketable.
400=Saudia and Ethiopian. 777=DHL and TNT.

And then of course there's the Classic-

200=Fast upgrade and DOD flying...

Suddenly not that easy a choice...

Whiner. Try doing it with a Carousel. The Litton 92 is perfectly capable of getting you down and back no problem. Been doing it for years and years.

The kids these days, I tell ya!

does the equipment lock apply even to upgrades? so if you start on the 777, but can upgrade on the -200 before your lock is up, do you have to wait for it to expire? Does the company ever waive it?

Equipment lock will keep you in the airplane. The company has waived it in the past, but that seems to have been a one time deal. Future staffing needs might change that.

That being said, however, I wouldn't reccomend attempting a left seat upgrade into steam gauges after having flown glass... Individual results may vary, but I think you'll find it quite difficult. Most people do.

The 400 will provide you the quickest Captain upgrade prospect, assuming you have the internal SA minimums to upgrade, and three Captain recommendations (required by upgrade). The 200 is eventually going away. The 777 is too senior for a newbie FO to upgrade quickly. Bottom line, go 400 if you think you have what it takes to be an quick upgrade Captain within two years.
