When I was a kid watching the Jetsons cartoons, I figured we'd all have them by now!

For CS to do that, they have to notify you by 3:16am (9 hours prior). You have to check your schedule after 3:16 for any possible trip. If nothing on your schedule at 3:16 (like you're going to wake up and check...) then you automatically go on LC and the 12 hour callout.
Klondike,

iaflyer is correct that the earliest you could be assigned to report for a trip or begin a short call would be 12:16 pm on the 31st. The other time is incorrect though. Crew Scheduling would have to place the assignment on your schedule 9 hours prior to you going on call, which in this case would be no later than 17:16 on the 30th. (When your on-call day begins at midnight, the cutoff is 15:00.) If you checked your schedule after 5:16 pm on the 30th and nothing was there, you would simply go on long call at 2:16 am on the 31st with a 12 hour callout.

Personally, I like Italian benefits myself!

If an airline is going to start hiring pilots with no experience, I guess it makes sense that it's Virgin.

Just one more thing to try to split the pilot group. These guys are neither fish nor fowl. A risky experiment at best.
