I know it’s all a wag, just curious about the averages. Thanks!
One of my buddies on the 777 told me he was off of it his first bid. It won't take you long. In fact if you don't get it right out of training and have to wait for a system bid you'd never have to sit Reserve.
My understanding of the 777 is that they rarely get used on Reserve because it's not likely someone calls in sick for a 12 day trip. Because of this it's popular to move to Memphis and bid Reserve on the 777...
If avoiding Reserve is what you want the airplane I'd avoid right now is the 767.
