You could potentially fly 8hrs in one day within 10hrs duty or fly 4hrs within 16hrs duty. There are too many variables to list, so you have to expect both extremes. Annual flight times are probably ~600 +/- 100 with the extremes being 800+ hrs.

No good "clean" answer. I like to describe it as feast/famine. You could be called on a Monday, fly every day, total 30hrs, and be home Friday night. Or you could sit at home for 2 weeks straight. Or be called on a Tuesday, sit in a hotel Wednesday, fly Thursday, and get an airline ticket home Friday. Typical busy time is Fall/Winter, with the slow time Spring/Summer.

Do you know if they consider low-time guys ~500-600TT?

They have in the past and that is the current minimum listed on the job openings.

Depends on the quality of the applicant pool, and where you stand in it. But usually somewhere around 500-800hrs is what they look for. If you got some extra stuff like 100hrs multi or MEI it could help you get looked at with lower time. Also, if you already live in one of their bases, likely to help you out.
