747 vs 767 - How many hours are people crediting a month? (interested to hear from yr 1 or yr 2 pilots so I can know what to expect to pocket if I get assigned either fleet)
I've been averaging credit wise around 120 a month on the 747, I usually will VX (volunteer) for an extra trip and work around 21 days

Thanks!
If you want the 767 you can usually get it. The way it worked last year was pilots who were awarded class dates were asked to put in a standing bid before they showed up, the bids were awarded in order by the last 4 of your SSN (0001 first 9999 last) and the 747 usually went senior. So if the last 4 of your SSN is a low number numerically you will probably have your choice of airplanes////Someone who recently went through the process please correct me if I'm wrong.
