About "spare" American fighter pilots

Stutying US archives or reading American books, "spares" pilots are often or always mentioned. Normal.
But who was "spare" ? Where and how long time did the "spare" had to wait ? Did he wait in his plane ? nearby ? Did his started engine like ohers before take off ?

Sorry for these ingenuous questions ...
Phil.
