Comair low timer training update!

Prior to the new contract reserve pilots would fly alot. I think in two years I have had three, maybe four reserve days where I have not been used. Under the new the new system the company is doing everything they can to limit reserves to 74 hours, making sure we do not break guarantee.
Reserves will likely still be used everyday available the difference will be the assignments will be very unproductive, just as all the trips are for all pilots at comair right now.

Thanks for the info, I was wondering if a reserve pilot would only get say 300hours a year, but looks like at CMR you would still get 800+

You should easily get over three hundred hours per year. In my two years I have flown over a thousand, picking up very little extra flying, and being furloughed for three months.
You still have the option to bid to fly which puts you higher up on the call out list, but you would still be bypassed upon reaching the 74 hours, assuming of course staffing would allow that.
