Default PSA Lines

Hello everyone. New PSA hire here. I was hoping someone could tell me what a typical CLT based, junior FO line looks like. Is it usually around 4 days on and 2 -3 days off? I know it all depends, but some insight would be great. Thanks.

Did you get the -200 or the -700?

Don't know. I start on training Monday. I think I might be one of the older people in class, so I hope to get a choice.
My girlfriend is freaking out about never getting to see me. I see that there are numerous direct flights daily between DFW and CLT, so I'm going to try and semi-commute. I am hoping to go fly for several days in a row on overnights, and then have a few days in a row off, but I have no idea what the lines look like.

I have a class date at TSA in August but thought about applying over at PSA also. Good luck with training!

Think turboprop flying in jets. 7 legs a day, 15 credit-hour 4-days. Reserve in Charlotte was running well over a year, I don't know about the other bases. I wanna say 10 days off? Something like that. Anyway, on reserve if you're commuting plan to spend one day at home a week. Living the dream baby!

The above is all second hand from a PSA FO I met in the CLT break room.

I have 460 hours total with 65 multi. However, I have a bachelor degree. Most of the low time people at the interview had a degree.

Congrats on the hire, tex. I heard they were interviewing people with only commercial/multi (obviously you exceed that) over there and was just curious as to what people actually were getting hired on with. I hope all works out well for you there and good luck in training. What did some of the other guys in your class have?

I am not in class until Monday, but from what I remember from the interview, I don't think anyone had more than 700 hours. One guy was a flight engineer, but he didn't make it past the written quiz. I'm not sure who all got the call from my interview day, but if I can find a computer when I get to training, I will post info on here for all of you.
