I am not sure that there is anything typical to Eagle. Most regionals will be bout the same. The thing that makes the difference is the contract. As a new hire, you'd want to check out the reserve rules.

I am here for a while, 6 years, so it's not bad. I generally fly three day trips with weekends off. This gives me 15-16 days off a month. Sometimes I fly two day trips back to back with weekends off. I have a pretty good life but it takes some seniority to get it. The three day trips that I like are 5-2-3 and get done before 5 on the last day. I am doing two day trips this month and get done before noon on the second day. There are a lot of variances though, it depends on what you want to do. If you live in base it is a pretty good life.

PBS is supposed to come in a couple of years and it will change some things.
