How is reserve life with XJT? Do pilots fly much? Can they maintain a steady schedule?

2. Yes tons 12 or 13 days off even as a line holder
3.If you dont get reassigned, or if can get a hold of any one there during the weekly SWAP or "IROP". Then yes you can; but in short no

Flying around 50 hours a month, getting credit for around 74:59.
No steady schedule. You really can't count on certain days off. I can't plan on it, but usually if I have a stretch of 5 or 6 reserve days I will not get used on day 1. In fact, I have never been used on day one. If I lived in ATL it would be like having an extra day off.

I live in ATL. 3 1/2 year ATL CR7 FO. I generally fly less than 30 hours per month and usually end up with an extra 3 or 4 days off per month due to not being called. Of course, I am still on-call those days, but it works well for me. If I commuted, it would not work so well.

For a little perspective, I'm on 12 year pay left seat ATL CR2. And on reserve. Almost 7 years of my living the dream at ASA have been reserve. Best of luck.

Redan,
That's got to be by choice. I ain't that far from holding a line and there aren't 2 years seniority between me and that point. Not saying it's a bad choice based on circumstances, but I believe it's your choice.
