60 hours per month averaged over a year. Any other answer is either working more than minimum schedule, not accounting for vacation and continuous qualification, or a lie.

CA reserve in PHL is more of a backlog since they took lines away to staff MDT.
It’ll be interesting to see what the extra airplanes do for us in terms of added flying but there aren’t enough FOs currently in training to make reserve times crazy different, even with the current fleet size.

I keep getting shipped up to PHL to do reserve trips when I’m CLT based because they don’t have enough coverage. Everyone in my class that’s still in PHL is holding a line a month or two after finishing OE.

Extra airplanes bring the fleet count back up around 60. Envoy is getting 15 170s which is sparking the transfer. PDT management is still planning for an ORD base long term. Don’t get too excited yet, they planned for a DCA base for 6 months before it was announced that it was going to PSA.

They intentionally cross cover bases to reduce the number of pilots who bang out sick/fatigued in base mid assignment.

Anyone had success with reaching a recruiter? I've emailed twice in the last 3 weeks with no reply. Perhaps there is another way to connect other than [email protected]?
