How long should you expect to sit reserve when you first start at eagle? And do they use you?

ORD EMJ 4 months
ORD CRJ 1 year
LGA EMJ 11 Months (But dropping hard)
BOS EMJ 1 Year
DFW CRJ 1 1/2 year
DFW EMJ 1 1/4 years
DFW SF3 3 months
LAX EMJ 1 2/3 years
LAX SF3 4 months
MIA ATR 5 months
SJU ATR 4 Months

This is all estimets

Based on Boston. On line for four months...holding a relief line. Sat reserve for just two months. A friend in LGA got a composite line after a couple of months...but got put back on reserve because people below him kept transferring out.

And yes...you will get used on reserve. A lot. Good luck...

how often do new hires find themselves on "ready reserve"? is this common or are they usually just within two hours of the airport?

How much are you guys blocking a month? 60-70hrs?

lines on the jets are from 79-90 hrs

in LGA i had a reserve line for 3 months, but was able to hold a weekends off during it. Have had a composite the last 3, should be able to get a relief line next month. Ive done ready reserve maybe a dozen times since ive been here. I flew 60-80 hours with the reserve line and 85-95 with the composite

while i was on reserve in sju i spent most of my time on ready reserve. I ended up flying only 100 hours in the 3 months of reserve i did down there. Things will probably be different on the jet since they are technically differnt companies with differnt schedulers.

Eagle, I am looking Eagle very hard.On the EMJ, does ORD have many out and backs or 2 day trips? Also, is it true Eagle is sending folks to Flight Safety for a brush up,(Low Timers) I understand while there you are not paid, but is there per-diem?

Because of my complete and total bidding incompetence I am on S1 in BOS this month. I have flown a total of 9hrs so far this month.
