1. What does it look like for a new hire to get FAT, SFO or SLC. Which of those would have the shortest reserve

2. What does a "typical" reserve schedule look like?

3. What does a "typical" line schedule look like.

Lastly how about a commute from MSP? Eventually want to get back there on the Jet, but didnt want to wait for a jet class
1. FAT
2. You get 11 days off a month. usually blocks of 4-5 days of reserve with 2-3 off in between.
3. Junior lines are usually 4 4-day trips per month, may get another local, 2-day, or standup thrown in if they need it.

MSP is a tough commute from almost anywhere I hear, but I have no first hand experience.

Welcome aboard!
