As portfo said, ANC 747 or CVG 767. If you get ANC 747 before the seat locks expire starting in September, you may be stuck there for a while. 767 guys will be senior and will probably take more desirable base slots as they come open.
All aircraft schedules are equally peculiar, so to speak. Junior 767 CVG could be domestic DHL night freight, sitting reserve in Asia, or sitting reserve in CVG. Once you start a 747 trip, seems like you can be sent almost anywhere.
