Gretzky, thanks for the input.

I don't live in NY. I live in Washington, D.C. I've been told that I can do long reserve from home in Washington. Also, I have relatives that live within 2 hours of JFK that I can stay with for short call. That is nice, but it's still not home with my wife and kid. Another thing to consider is the MD-88 shuttle does a lot of overnights in DC. Also, If the reserves are getting called up all the time, does it really matter if you hold a line or not? What's the better quality of life? MD-88 or 767ER?

Opinons?
