Not particularly more or less. There is more open time (overtime trips) in the larger bases, however. You will also fly a lot of those trips from other bases while on reserve. Lots of deadheading and airport downtime flying out of ORF. Also plan on losing half a day of your life each trip by showing up day 1 at 0430 and coming home day four at midnight. "Crappy"

On a positive note, there is usually one really long (24+ hour) overnight on the "crappy" trips. With the right overnight and a fun crew (and some restraint) it can make for a good time.
