This should be interesting. For any trip that they need to man, there should be two groups of Reserve Line holders (3 if you count the R24, given enough notice) to pull from. Right now I can see the leveling of all the RA guys, but I don't know how the RA+ or RB+ guys would rank. The first half of my period the RB+ folks would be players, and the last half the RA+ would interact. I think we'll have to learn a little.

This is the first month for published A+ and B+ lines. Previously, scheds could slide an individual 6 hours on a single day basis, but as Tony mentioned, it didn't show up on the VIPS leveling screen. It's possible that in March, the levelling will show all five categories, A, A+, B, B+, and R24.
Up till now, on the 727, B reserve was for the Cheetoh eaters. In Oct (vacation in Nov and Dec is not typical,) I went to the airport 5 times, and 4 were for standbys. The other was a PM out-n-back.
