Minimum days off on reserve is 10, reducible to 8. Minimum days off not on reserve is 11. Hours vary by month, base, and equipment. Typically, the hours range from 70-105, depending on staffing and the month.
In my base, the average hours for captains for November is 92, and for first officers is 100. I would expect December to be higher than that.
