Can some one give some back ground on this. I overheard a couple of DFW guys talking about a certain pilot in DFW that got in trouble pulling a Scott P on a flight.

Atlanta is generally always longer for getting a line. On the 200 in ATL, it's less than 2 years, from what I have heard. On the 700 in ATL it is over 3 years. From what I hear, all other bases are less than a year for a line. Cancellation and deadhead are 100%.

Right now, you can probably hold a line a lot sooner in the smaller bases (DFW, DTW, IAD). They average around 15-20 reserve lines, however I expect that number to go up come January with the new FTDT rules.

My JUL 2012 classmates in ATL on the -200 are all lineholders with room to spare. Come JAN they should still be lineholders, but with a little less room to spare.
My DTW classmates are all still on reserve. Come JAN they will be close to lineholder status but still on the outside looking in.
The DFW folks are in about the same position as the IAD folks.
YMMV

I'm barely holding a line in IAD after 15 months on property (setting aside the TDYs the next two months which would push me back into reserve). Come JAN I should have a little breathing room, but not much.

I just moved down about 20ish numbers on the 700 in ATL due to senior FO's bidding from the 200 to the 700. Still +3 yrs for reserve.

It won't be 3+ years on the 70 after this bid. They normally run 40-45 reserve lines on the 70 in ATL. I'm an oct'12 hire and will sit 42 up from the bottem.

Total number of reserves will increase as the numer of 700 pilots in ATL increase and the flight time duty time regs go into effect. Reserve may drop from over 3 years, but not as drastically as one might think.
