I agree a 767 would be good for LS.
You make a few points in your post. Turkey IMO should be expanded from MAN - I think there is only one destination from Manchester to Dalmatian, wherever that is. What about Bodrum and Altinkum?.
Also Greece is another, LS fly to Kos and Crete and Rhodes I think, yet no route to the popular Corfu.
Longer Haul - Las Vegas is
5087 miles from MAN, so would be just about doable with a 767.

Would make sense - But was the first departure to New York not from Leeds?.
