4 of the legs (not necessarily landings) are required to be on the 767. This is not in the FOM.

I could be wrong, but I thought the question was for the 76, but it could’ve been 7ER, which does, as you point out, have the additional stipulation.

I don’t have an FOM handy but the ER requires 7/5. There is a “ballnote.”

7ER is a DAL bid category, not an aircraft type.

I fully understand that. Part of the confusion would be whether it’s a question of IOE/TOE for the 765 which every leg and landing is a 767, or the ER, which is obviously a mixed category. I recently did the 765 IOE/TOE and I was complete with 6 legs and 4 landings.

That may be what you meant, but "76" vs "7ER" is a bit too vague. That would make sense though

It's like night an day difference. The 717 is CRJ flying with Trim Tabs and Autothrottles. 717 is indeed a fun jet to fly but the multi leg trips get old quick. 737 has a ton of variety and some really efficient trips with high total credit and two legs or less per day. Downsides of the 737 trips are red eyes, and even easy 2 leg days being made long with 3+ hr sits

The 737 flying two or less legs a day was true 5 years ago. Outside of NYC, quality of trips have deteriorated significantly.

The 737 is terrible, senior guys should bid off. This is strictly a junior airplane.

Agreed, Airbus has a try table guys! A whole table! No bleed valves to worry about.
