Yep, IBT 1108 solved that problem allright. Now you can see crews showing up at 0700 and sitting all day at an FBO with no plane. An alternative to the above scenario is where the crew has a beer, calls it a day, and if they do get an early call-out, they are ready. If no calls, they are in their room resting. Can it be abused..sure. Depends on management. Careful what you chose.

The way these fracs operate, this becomes the norm and the pilots just get wasted from day after day of this BS. There is no predictability to anything so how are you supposed to be rested.
In all honesty, they are usually pretty good about giving you a heads up on an early call out. It also seems to be getting better as of late. That being said, it still sucks!!!
