757 driver I will try again for you.

757 at LGW is a hard worked fleet.

Night flights at the momentare usually to Greece/Turkey islands (KOS, CFU, DLM etc) or Spain (IBZ,AGP).
8 days off a month. (Soon to become 10 if pay deal accepted).

On sby's you have to be in the crew room 2 hours after call. (A few live many miles away and use local B&Bs to meet 2 hour requirement). At present I get called in on most standbys but over the quiter months this becomes much less often. Most of the changes to sbys are 1 or 2 days before duty but a few are on the day.

Most of the summer flights do go east but there are still plenty of spanish flights.

I dont have pay scales in front of me so hopefully somebody else will answer that.

Nights away are mostly to cover EDI flying (no crews based there) and is normally 4 or 5 days away. This is not something you will do much of. Most (95%) of your flying will be out and back from LGW. As I said before, not much taxi time.
