... hired into the 76 at Atlas versus being a furloughed pilot from another airline who is currently on the street...


My guess is that since there are currently only two (one more coming ... maybe?) 767-300's doing pax charter work - mostly for the military - those will be the only ones doing the overseas international flying. The 5 DHL (ex-ABX) 767-200's will probably be doing core product flights domestically (or at least North America i.e. Canada, Mexico, Puerto Rico, etc.) with nightly hub turns through CVG.

Other than Jerry and captainv's points, maybe the only other 767 advantages over the 747 would be avoiding 8 to 15 hour legs, avoiding 4 to 8 hour time zone changes, and avoiding places you might not want to go like the "Stans", Africa, etc.

Get on the property, cope with a couple of years on the "light twin" and then bid over if you want. Personally, I wouldn't think twice about which airplane I ended up on as long as I got on the seniority list.
