The main problem with Eagle reserve was that the nigth before you started reserve you would know what RSV coverage you had until 3pm Pacific time. Since I commuted from SEA that made getting to base a Charlie Foxtrot. I guess that it really wasn't made for the commuter. Also, we were so short staffed that they would DH pilots from other bases to come in and do the flying while RSV in the base would sit and not get called. Good for people who lived in base but bad for commuters that wanted to fly instead of sleep on the crewroom couch.
