My point is I think your claim of up to 700 hours the first year, including 2-4 months of RSV, is inflated. I would think the lower realm is more likely, say 350-400. Hence, I would like to hear what others are flying their first year, if anyone wishes to volunteer their times, so we can get a ballpark estimate.

You tend to put out accurate info normally, I just find the claims of what a new hire, who will sit a bit of RSV their first year, to be a bit over the top. Maybe guys ARE flying that much at ENY, I would just like to hear actual numbers rather than anecdotal claims. Not for me, but in the interest of accurate info for potential new hires looking at a new career. Not trying to stir your pot, just trying to establish if it's accurate or not. I know what was true a few months ago in this industry can be 180º out from what is happening today.
