Depends how long it takes to finish IOE. A lot of people on the 175, at least when I got hired, got 2-3 months of time off making training pay before they got called in for ground, then got a line the next month after they got off IOE, usually on reserve for a week or two.
Nowadays I'm hearing 3-4 months. Still less than half of what 145 guys are waiting.
