I'm confused....flying for 17 yrs and been on reserve for all but 8 months....was that a typo? I haven't started training yet, but as a planned commuter to SFO im hoping to get off reserve and hold a line in 6 months....am I being overly optimistic? 17 yrs of reserve and I think I would look for a cliff to jump off.
