It’s pretty unpredictable. A few months ago new hires were only spending a couple of months of reserve on EWR 777 FO and not sitting reserve at all on many NB categories. NHs getting WBs at all is historically unprecedented as are only a few months on reserve, so it’s anyone’s guess what the future will hold. Your estimate is what is it is right now, though, but still varies slightly between categories that you might see in BI.
