One thing you will get here that you won't get much of anywhere else while on reserve: actual flight time from day 1. I'm averaging 65 actual hours of flight time per month and that's without picking up any red flag (I commute). I'm hearing reserve FOs at other regionals aren't getting close to that.
All regional pilots are flying their tails off. Expressjet needs something better then a guaranteed interview "ccp" because the upgrade time is horrible.
