Reserve rules
Can someone shed some light on what reserve is like at G4? I know it’s all short call with either 90 mins or 2:30 call out of PIE but that leaves a few questions.
What are the rap times and do they release you early on your last day? 0500 or 1100? 12 hrs, 13 hrs etc?
How much do you get used in the smaller bases?
Easy to trade days around?
Is there a first out / last out option?
I would guess that as hiring has been stopped for 18 months it’s too hard to tell as to how king reserve will last, but if those on reserve would chime in, I would appreciate knowing what I’m letting myself in for.

Technically one, with the exception of the dual PIE/SRQ base. With that being said, if you're on reserve in SFB you are on reserve for the state of Florida and sometimes beyond that. You will spend a considerable amount of time driving all over the place.

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.
