Several 145 FO's I've talked to are below 300 hours by the time they are off probation. There are well over 100 FO's who have been on property over 2 years that haven't hit 950 hours yet, or they would be displaced to CA. About 2/3s of them are on the 145.
Some of them avoid flying as much as possible, but it is easier to do when there isn't that much flying to begin with.
