It's not a big deal at all. IMO, I like the way the 767 flies better than the 75.

I'm certainly no 757/767 expert, but I "thought" that the FedEx 757 glass cockpits were a unique configuration and that it was unlikely that Boeing would deliver our shiney new 767's with said glass cockpit?

Wouldn't that hinder a common type rating?
