Reserve coverage should take into account for all bases within a 2 hour flight of the one you are in. For example: If your reserve levels are low in NY, and ATL (for example) are fat, capped reserve days go away for NY pilots. The company has the luxury to cover a NY trip with an ATL reserve, we should be able to take advantage of that also. It's not right for lineholders to have their hands tied when it is the company that determines manning. If they continually understaff one base, and over another, we should not be penalized. And don't even bring up the manning formula. It is only slightly more believable than Sasquatch. It does not exist in any meaningful form.
