3) people keep saying “it’s possible to work out 2-hr call out in EWR, but ready reserve is the norm.” Is this true, and how likely is it to get that for someone living near EWR?
1) Yes
2) Yes
3) It is all based on the reserve preferences you submit versus what anyone else on reserve submits. If you are the most junior reserve pilot and everyone else asks for short call, don't expect to get it. There is no way to project what people's reserve preferences will be. A lot of people commute so they submit preferences according to their commuting schedule. With you living in base you should have more flexibility in your preferences. You can see what others have submitted for preferences and submit something different to increase your chances of getting what you want.
