At other "Brand X" airlines.. the pilots of the 757/767 can legally fly a mixture of airplanes. Some "classic" 757's that have round dials and EFIS all the way to the 767-400s with complete glass cockpits that are similar to what FedEx will have with our advanced flight deck.
All that is required is the differences training to learn the particulars of the jets we'll be flying.
The magic of the common type rating.

-Glass 757 & glass 767 ... ok
-Glass 767 & round 767 ... ok
-Glass 757 & round 767 ... not ok
I thought that was the whole purpose behind the initial "SBA" bid.
I've been wrong before, though.

How many B-767 pilots do we have who are current and qualified and without weather restriction?
B-757 Advanced Cockpit
B-767 Classic Cockpit
