I have heard new hires are to expect 9 months on reserve? Can anyone confirm if this is this case?

DH8 YTZ FO - 11 months
DH8 YTZ CA - 4 months
I don't have E2 numbers or numbers for other bases.
Thanks for sharing. How many hours are DH8 FOs flying while on reserve? Just wondering how long it takes to build up the time on type for left seat upgrades.

Did you mix up those numbers, or is that for an internal CA upgrade?

Is that 4 month from DoH or after line check ?

Anyone know if junior E2 FOs on reserve have ended up flying much lately?
