Shouldn't be a problem to get BOS out of training. If you don't, you'd likely get it on the next system bid, which would be about 6 months down the road, maybe less depending on when you were hired in the cycle. I can't speak for reserve coming up, but I was off reserve on the 190 about 2 months after I finished IOE. Not sure if that's typical or not. That was in BOS. If I had bid JFK, I would have held a line a month earlier.
