767 I have noticed that before. I tend to listen to the pitch of the engines just out of habit of listing to my ride. I have noticed times that the pitch seems really low, like we are just cruising along, and at other times it is much higher and the flight time is shorter than before. I always assumed that the flight was scheduled to be longer to save fuel costs, but to try and maintain schedule, they were throttling up. I also assumed that delays were scheduled in, but I assumed it would be like 30 min or less/flight to try and maximize the schedule.
