Good question. I'm a new hire and on reserve. Obviously it completely depends on base, equipment, seniority in class, and how many classes are behind you. I chose the base and equipment that supposedly has the shortest reserve (EMB 120/FAT). When I was in class, I heard everything from expect no reserve to expect reserve for at least a few months. Financially, I prepared for a year of reserve.
I still have no idea...

Does anybody know how long new hires are on reserve?

I sat reserve for a good 2 1/2 years as an RJ FO in SLC, and would still be on reserve now a year and 3 months later if I was still at skywest. Great company overall but stagnation was killing me, I could not hold a line anywhere in the system after 2 1/2 years. They are becoming what AE was in that regard.
