what is the average time to show at the airport for the first day of a trip? usually early am?

If they have you show before 0800 L on your first day, all the time prior to 0800 L is paid at overtime. And on top of that, for that situation, you'll also get OT for any time beyond 9 hours of duty on that day.

For example, if they have you show at 0630 L for an airline and you are on duty for 11 hours total that day, you'd get 1.5 hours (or 6 quarter-hours) of OT for the early show then another 2 hours (or 8 quarter-hours) for the hours in excess of 9 hours of duty. All told, you'd make an extra 3.5 hours of OT.

that is pretty sweet.. is a normal duty day considered 9 hours, and everything more than that is overtime?
 
No, just if you have an early show on day 1. Otherwise it's after 12 hours of duty.
 
what about on the last day, what time do you guys on average get back to your home city?

It's all over the map for me. If I'm home in time for dinner with my wife, it's a good last day. But I've also gotten back home and been asleep by 7:30 AM on my last day. On the other hand, I've had after-midnight returns, too, which aren't all bad given the extra money and compensatory time off.
