Quick reply, some information may vary from base to base, and it's the best from my recollection.

Not a true 5 on 5 off. It's really a rolling schedule, typically with 3-5 working days with 3-5/6 days off. Schedule varies depending on location and what you requested for shifts/days off.

Show times also varies. Earliest is 0515 show. Past that a few bases have later show times to stagger arrival times. The latest end time (block) that I am aware of is 2130, but there might be a base with a slightly later end times.

Duty hours vary, shortest is around 6 hours. Longest is 11 hours scheduled.

SoCal I believe averages around 16 days off for FOs and maybe a little less for captains. Wasn't the case in the past, but it has improved greatly with hiring.
