1. On average, how many days off are you guys getting on the 777?
2. Are guys really flying 95 hours a month on the 777? If so, is that mandatory, or are they doing that with voluntary overtime?
3. Any chance of posting a sample 777 roster here (if you have one in electronic format)?
Thanks,

If you're applying as a DEC,then yes it's all true.
Captains are flying their butts off,while FO's are still under 80 hrs.
Expect not only to fly avg. 90 hrs a month,but also to be called on your days off,leave(if any)etc,etc.
Sorry I'm not trying to scare you,it's just the truth
Aha and don't forget:do not believe a single word of what they tell U at the Interview
