Can anyone chime in with how many hours a new hire might expect to fly at DCA? I thought I read in another thread that there was lots of time sitting reserve but hours were around 20-30/month, is that correct?

My friend just left DCA. Averaged 6 hot reserve sits and about 25 hours over the last 4 months.

Base bid award
Just to point out awarded and hold are very different points here. You’re first base awarded will be Dayton, most likely. By the time you leave training you should be awarded DCA. Once you complete IOE you’ll then go to Dayton for a few months before your DCA award is effective. Our base bids are about 6 months out.
There are essentially 2 award dates. New hires get it in completion of training. Base swaps have a specified date.

The first award is the one you get upon completion of sim. The next bid award you’re no longer a new hire, you’re essentially “Dayton” based.
