Default My first 100 Bus hours- reflections on the A-320

".Blueskies." wrote in message Lets see, now how much training to get the
type rating in a different Airbus bird?

4 days. I popped into the A-330/340 simulator next door and it looked almost
exactly the same inside. To change from the -330 to the -340, the sim tech
pulls the 2 lever 'throttle' quandrant, plugs in a 4 lever quadrant, and
reboots. Airbus people tell me that the A-380 will be similar.
