Looking at the schedule, one can see that 767 pilots are getting 4-5 hours of flight time in a 13+ hour duty day. 3 legs a day is not uncommon with a 5 hour sit in CVG between legs. Heard that scheduling has even expected 4 legs a day at times. Most 767 guys I speak with say it’s a great plane, good crews, check airman, etc. the number one complaint is the schedule. Which is funny because I know several who left the 74 in hopes of a better schedule on the 76. You’ll probably see guys returning to 747 as soon as the company allows them to bid back over.
