My first week of Sept. PE still hasn't gotten a class date. So there's somewhat of a barometer. Figure two interview groups or so per week and however many you have per group that pass multiplied over the last 2.5 months. What's the pass rate? Might give you somewhat of a gauge.

Reserve (RA/RB) Call Out 1:30 (1.5), unless you're on R-24.

Rumor had it that they wanted to get reserve utilization numbers up, so they started the R24 HSTBY BS...now its not a good deal anymore.

Where they really screw you on R24 is in the turn times.
Turn inside one long blue line of HSBY is operational duty limit.
Two separate blue lines assigned to a reserve pilot is scheduled duty limit.
This makes for some ugly critical period turns for the R24 HSBY guy.
