I am a part 135 cargo pilot working 5 nights a week and back at home each day and weekends. I am thinking of going the part 121 regional pilot route. My question is, what kind of time do you get off when your on reserve? 10-12 days off a month seems to be the normal answer, but are these days off consecutive, and do you know an advance when they will be? I ask because I am wondering if it is possible to jumpseat home on a regular basis when on reserve for a regional airline.
