I took a look at the 73. The average day worked was 4.94 hours. That includes 30 hour trips that touch 3 days. The average line was 79 hours and the average pilot had 16.12 days off working 13.78 days. Again the trips looked ugly to me. LA is probably one of the worst bases for trip construction but not as bad as posted.
Keep in mind that in both the 76 and 73 these are lines as awarded. A significant number of pilots will improve their lines through swaps and drops/pickups. As on the 767 this includes vacation since its to hard to break out and was CA lines only.
