Trying to definitively state reserve times is like trying to nail jello to the ceiling.
There are so many moving parts to determine that bickering over 6-9 months is really pointless. Bases will gain lines and lose lines. All the forced upgrades will come from one base for a couple months causing that base to have rapid movement, while the rest stagnate. People will transfer from one base to another to chase a line. In six months, who knows, maybe everything will flip and suddenly MIA will have all the new FOs and the bottom ORD guy will be on reserve for 12 months.
The bottom line is that Envoy keeps about 350 reserve FOs in the system. Each month has about 50 new hires and 50 people leaving. So, you should probably expect 7 months of reserve. If it's less, consider yourself lucky. If it's more, consider yourself Envoy'd.

Dera cherry picks the the best scenarios, others cherry pick the worst. The above statement is the accurate average.

Why do you care so much? Even if it was BS than it would benefit you to slow recruiting so that the company more likely to negotiate. Why keep trying to put the company in a positive light?

That way, you know, you actually have some credibility.
