The LAX76ER category flys a mix of Hawaii (HNL, Maui, Kona, Lihue) and international stuff now. Lots of low time 3-day Hawaii with an all-nighter at the end. Right now it's fairly brutal unless you really love all-nighters, working 20 days a month, or are really senior. The international has been starting with deadheads to ATL, JFK, and SLC, fly the trip, deadhead home, since there is little international that originates in LAX at this point. You'll see domestic stuff occasionally but not a mix of international and domestic since you revert to 30 in 7 rules if you throw in one domestic leg. Seems like a category that's in transition at this point. -ER pilots cannot pick up open domestic trips and vice versa.
