Just 1, 9easy was making the point that if your base is within a couple hours driving distance of another base you are more likely to get called on reserve. They usually just run a 200% offer in base vs delay a flight to limo you over but repositioning planes around from base to base, in and out of heavy C checks/inductions, rescue flights, outstation timeout recrew for other bases isn't to unusual, especially in Florida. There is only 1 co-base (must be within 60 miles driving distance), PIE/SRQ and the reserve call out is 2.5 hours for that. Also, the larger the base the more likely you will get called. Reserve at a small 2 plane base that is 4 hours or more driving from another base will be the easiest money you will ever make.
