Why are you ready to concede the idea of cutting the RR to 4 hours? Are you in the short call reserve bracket? Just wondering.
I am a short call reserve. 2 problems I can come up with on top of my head with cutting RR to 4 hours from 8 hours.
1. It will cause double the number of people to be on ready reserve per given day. This may or may not be a big issue for some people. I know plenty of people who live more than an hour from the airport. It'd get really old to drive all that way just to get 4 hours of credit.
2. I think we have other things that needs to be fixed first in our reserve system before the length of a ready reserve section. In fact, I'd take 8 hours of credit for 8 hours of ready reserve before 4 hours of credit for 4 hours of ready reserve.
