Could any RJ bros post what a typical 200 or 700 trip looks like? doesn't matter how many days.

I just did a 200 trip with 20 legs in 4 days, 19 hrs credit for 79 TAFB, and we never crossed a state line. Nor did we have a leg longer than maybe :45 flight time.
Two weeks before that, I did a 4 day 700 trip. 8 legs, 26:50 credit. Basically did a transcon and back with a couple of IAH legs. Longest leg was around 3:30 air time, shortest leg maybe 3:00.
So as you can see there's no such thing as a typical trip. Yes, the 200s generally fly shorter legs but I'm taking one 1500nm away from home base next week... And I have 5 standups next month in the -700 to a destination 60 nm away...

Thanks, I remember seeing a picture posted many pages ago with junior base assignments but couldn't find it. Looking to get SFO on the RJ possibly, how long will I be in MSP and how long could I expect reserve in SFO? Thanks.

At least the darn trip ends in ORD. (That exact trip was my Day 2 IOE). Last month I did SFO-ONT-SFO-ONT-SFO-ONT. And then the next day ONT-SFO-ONT-SFO-ONT. And then the third day...oh, you get the idea.

Occasionally we get a 200 trip that flows through the denver system. They move flying around so it varies a lot.
Seattle?
