In the railroad industry crews are normally called 90 minutes before they have to report to work. Does it work the same way for pilots or do they have more lead time (do they have more of a set schedule than railroad crews)?
Pilot have 4 hours min calling time, the tow which needed 3 pilots had an idea they would be ready the next day can put a call for pilots the day befor, its called a prospect.
