LAX pilots also cover Ontario and Orange County. Pretty unusual for a reserve to get called out to one of those airports though. It happens, but not very often.
Crew skeds understands Los Angeles. They know it can take a lot longer than 2 hours to get somewhere at rush hour. The key is "reasonableness". Don't sit LAX short call from San Diego. Long call -yes. Short call - no.
I think guys live just about everywhere out there. Is anything concentrated in one particular location in LA?
If you are on reserve though, its like I said. Short call has to be "reasonably" close by.
