757/767 questions
i am aware that UPS pilots fly the 757 and 767. But do U.S. airways, American, United, Delta, and others who operate 757's and 767's let their pilots fly both? If not, why? Also do airlines such as Delta who has 300,and 400, allow their pilots to fly both versions? Do 767-400 pilots fly 777's? Any other comments regarding to my weird question is appriciated.

The 757 and 767 share a common type rating so pilots can switch back and forth between the 2 with no problem. The only difference is the 767-400, to fly that you must have completed a differences training course (usually a 3 day course, I think...). Once that is done you are qualified on everything from the 757-200 all the way to the 767-400. The 777 is a whole different aircraft so that one requires its own type rating.

I fly the 757-200, 757-300, 767-200, and 767-400. They are similair, but different too. Different weights, flaps, speeds, systems, etc. The 767-400 is more like a 777 than a normal 757/767. I flew the 767-200 today from Paris and next week I fly the 767-400 to Honolulu. I do like them.
