CAL reserve A B??

AFAIK, you're expected to be at the drome, inside of security for those four hours. Here's the best part...you get to do them for free! Yessir, the old five hours of pay for a FSB are gone daddy gone.
I typically arrive at the anointed time and check my V-File, then scurry away to find the darkest, quietest chair in the Tilton-Hilton for a few hours of snoring.
For AM shifts, California Burrito will do for b-fast along with some SBucks.
Four hours of your time, plus the commute. Free. Nice.
We used to have to sign in but I don't know if that's required any longer. I haven't signed in for a long time and I've never heard a word. If there's a bald 767 skipper down there with orange all over his bag, don't loan him an Andy Jackson under any circumstances. You'll never see it again.
About 40 mins prior to its completion I start heading for the UN bus. I mean, I stay dutifully till the last minute. I stand right at the FOSR desk with a cheerful and eager look. You see, I am building multi-engine turbine time so I can get an airline job and I don't want to miss an opportunity to fly.
FSB...because they can.

Be at airport for the 4 hour Field standby period. You're latest departure time is 1 hour after the 4 hour period, unless you waive the 1 hour. Search UPA for Field standby. Join unitedpilotforum. This is not the place for questions, if improperly answered, can get you fired. Find a better source. Are you really a UAL pilot?
