Also, line bids or reserve bids are for the entire bid period. There is no mixing reserve and regular line schedules within a bid period.

I heard 7ER OE still has a 6 week break between rating ride and first IOE (can anyone confirm?). IOE and TOE should be complete within a month or less...once you finally get started. For you, NOV will likely be just practice for learning the mechanics of bidding. You won't see a single rotation on your award. Dec may be the same...though you might consider bidding reserve days/regular trips to align with any Christmas desired time off.
