Any base in particular? The average FO line is 87 hours of credit in February so I would estimate average block around 80.
I was surprised by a lot of the junior FO lines having well above guarantee and 14-15 days off. I can get you more specific numbers if you narrow it down to one or two bases.

Junior lineholder in SDF is a 9/19 hire, probably a month or two out of training. Similar days off as IND but maybe slightly more productive trips? Looks like the guys that are willing to pick up the shorter trips (generally non-commuters) are, as you would expect, able to hold more days off with more flying. I hope this helps!

SDF CA: 12/15 but reserve coverage looks to be much thinner and junior lineholder will likely be 6/16 next month. Last award has an 8/18 upgrade coming in.

These dates are all based off hire date correct?
