My logbook is telling me that I've flown about 78 hours in the last 28 days. It was closer to 88 after I finished my last trip, I've been off a few days.
I couldn't fly less if I wanted to...unless I bid reserve or standups, then I'd work the same amount of days but block less.
Had one month of reserve, then lineholder. I imagine its the same situation now.
Skywest CRJ FO.
If you want to fly, you'll fly plenty on the CRJ side. But our pay and QOL sucks compared to some of the competition.
This data is far different than our E175 operations.
I'd recommend going elsewhere, there are better options currently. But if you want one of our junior bases and want to fly a ton, its an option.
Edit: Mind you, I could easily work more hours if I chose to do so...lots of pilot posted flights in open time. Occasionally company posted too.
