It all depends on what plane you get. Envoy works basically the same as any other airline on the 175, but CRJ and 145 is very dysfunctional. I’m on the 145 and besides welfare trips scheduling bought me to avoid sending me back to the sim, I’ve averaged 12 hours a month this year, involuntary reserve. This is while proffering for everything that starts and ends within a block of reserve days, asking to be turned back on any open trips, and bidding reserve shifts that have the highest probability of flying.
