NYC DEC questions…
Hey all, I apologize if this is discussed elsewhere in this forum but…. How long could a DEC expect to be on reserve in NYC. Forever? What do the reserve lines look like? Are DEC’s being flown? Any idea on how far out class dates are?
Thanks in advance.

You'd be on reserve for years the way it is going right now. I don't know about forever but it would certainly be a long time. Reserve lines are going to be min days off (12) and getting abused during the days that you do work. You may get longer trips, you may get a quick turn. I'm sure they would find a way to get you in tomorrow if you wanted. I just saw them post something about doing a DEC career fair this month with on site interviews. They are desperate for any DEC. I personally don't understand why someone would subject themselves to it. But hey, your life.
