Duty period avg is what AA currently has. It sucks for the junior guys. You do a redeye day one and make 5:10 min that day. Second day is "off" in a hotel, third day you do the transcon back at 5:10 (or block) making a three day worth 10-11 hours of pay. Junior line holders work 18-19 days for mid 70's in credit.
