Anyone have any idea how the reserves are being used in the 70 for FO's? I know they are probably getting used everyday, but just looking to see which windows are being used the most.

well this month I am A5 window, Only been used once , and I think I blocked 30 hours last month... so haven't been used much

on a4 last month, used everyday except for 1, this month a5, was not used the 3rd or 4th, but used everyday since, off for 4, then scheduled another 4 day.

They are way overstaffed with reserves this month on the 70/90, so many are not going to be used very much. I am ready to see what they do for next month.

Furlough..

Well put speaking the truth

Anybody know how ATP writtens work being furloughed? If it has been more than 2 years and we get furloughed does our written expire?

As far as I know, as long as you are employed or furloughed (but still have a a seniority number) by a 121/135 carrier, it will not expire. Make a call to the local FSDO, they should be able to tell you.

FAR 61.39

(i) Pilot in command aircraft qualification training program that is appropriate to the certificate and rating sought; and
