The airport reserve shifts are 8 hours, except for the last shift in IAD which is 8pm-12am (I think the first shift starts at 5am, but I'm not entirely sure). Be prepared to get put on a lot of stand-ups if you get the late shift though.
We also a short call reserve (2 hour call out), which is a 12 hour shift.
There is an online scheduling portal where you can submit your reserve requests, supposedly this is based on seniority.

Um, I want to just caution you guys and gals of a recent new hire with the initials JA. All I will say is be very "aware" flying with this person. I have been told by someone that previously worked with this person that the person has a few skeletons, is unstable and is running from something. If you knew you'd be questioning how (and why) this person was hired. This is not to slog anyone because it is a real situation.

Thanks for the update, I'd be interested to see how the 145 guys and gals are doing timeline wise and if it's along the same time frame as the dash program.
