NO joke, I was a little extreme on min legs/day (there are 1 leg days) but there ARE in fact 7 leg days!!! Here's an example of one...

1. MGM-ATL
2. ATL-TLH
3. TLH-ATL
4. ATL-MGM
5. MGM-ATL
6. ATL-AVL
7. AVL-ATL

7:42 of credit... this trip was 5/2/6/7 (4-day worth 26:40)

Saw another
ATL-GSO
GSO-ATL
ATL-CHA
CHA-ATL
ATL-VPS
VSP-ATL
ATL-ABY


ATL is the only base that does this and ONLY on the CR2. It's all the old ATR routes we used to have. DAL got rid of all the turbo-props but still wants the routes flown. Only way to make an efficient day according to the company I guess... most legs are around an hour of total block.

IAD has a few 6-leg days every now and then, but 4 to 5 legs is a typical day there. I don't think the CR7/9 in ATL or DTW has ever seen a 7-leg day possibly a 6?
