Clearly, reserve transparency is gone.

Well, I can't dispute what you're saying of course since it's a completely different time and situation. I guess I didn't think junior reserve was all that bad - the stuff I didn't like was things along the lines of endless OBRs, lots of ready sits, and so on - the usual stuff that I'm sure everyone dislikes. Were OBRs a big thing with hard line reserves as well?

How are reserve times in DFW? Also what is the maximum number of hours you can sit ready reserve in one day?

Hey,

I’ve been offered a position with OO and MSP is my preferred base. Thankfully it seems pretty junior but I’m trying to figure out some things about the base and wondering if you guys could answer some questions.

- I saw on a previous thread that FOs are currently on reserve for 6-8 months before they get a line in MSP. Is this still true? Is reserve time increasing or decreasing?

- How many days off per month will an FO average in MSP on reserve versus when they hold a line?

- How long to hold a line as a CA in MSP?

Thank you in advance to anyone who answers.

Really depends when you hit the line... right before summer flying you may never see reserve... hiring increases to 56 NH’s CRJ every 2.5 weeks in june. I wouldn’t worry about line or upgrade. It will happen fast.. realy depends on your flight time right now..

Is there any limit to how many days you can get scheduled on ready reserve? And is ready reserve considered duty time where you would get paid per diem?

How do upgrades work at OO?

Based purely on seniority? What about FO's that are hired with >1000 hrs Part 121?
