A reserve day pays 3.7 hours, whether or not you fly. You will NEVER break guarantee as a reserve pilot at Envoy. Standby pilots only occasionally get the call to work a flight. They will call in the RAP pilots if there is time.
You can proffer for a sequence to fly but those flights are usually the left over very low time flights that no one would pick up on OT.
The 3.7 hours credit per day really only comes into play if they let you drop (rarely) a day. That’s how much they will deduct from your 75 hours of pay for the month.
