this. Plan on min treat the extra as a bonus. The 777 seems to be the exception but as that fleet grows I have no doubt it will get managed more like the 747 where you start out blocking a bunch of hours then your schedule changes to dh and sitting around until your crt and block come out almost equal. No line guarantee either so youll probably get rig most months and 62 in training and vacation and sick months so figure at least half the year you are at min the other half maybe better but don’t plan on it.
