oops - runner beat me.

~0300 departure (plus or minus ~1 hour) with the normal morning wave outbound from MEM. 1-2 hour turn at the outstation and fly back. Arrive ~0900 (plus or minus ~1 hour). Typical duty time 7-8 hours, though better (shorter) ones will be under 6 and get back around 0800. There are occasionally trips with 3 very short legs (like BHM-BFM-MEM). Those suck even if the legs are short.

A typical line will be 3 or 4 identical trips per week. Some lines in a 5-week month have 4 trips per week on 4 weeks and one week off.

There are also pm out and backs that follow almost the same pattern 12 hours later, except they usually have slightly longer duty periods and get back ~2300 (plus/minus an hour). Some of those have 3 legs as well. The pms would be the senior of the two options.

All MEM fleets except the 777 have the am variety. All MEM fleets have the pm version including the 777 (it does one to EWR and back). No other base has them.

They can work for some local guys. Put your kids in bed (if they're little) and go yourself. Report around 0100-0200 at the hub and be back at your house to put your kids on the school bus if it's a good trip.
