Bidding for Polar

Here is where the coffee machine and Coke machine are kept. Please clean up after yourself and do not remove the magazines from this area. A good place to exchange thoughts with Operations personel and other pilots.

"Ross, you can bid anytime after your bid slot is open until all bidding shuts down, so 7:30 am is ok. If you wait too long however you have less choice on flights, and the next pilot after you may have bid on a flight you wanted. However we do not know all the flights , only the ones available to us at the time of the bid. ed mosier 1287"

You can bid any time from when your slot opens until the end of bidding wich is on the 20th.

"Yeah sorry about all that, but when I write the bidding system, there was no easy way to deal with the time zone issues. If we were all within 3 hours difference, it would have been easy, but since we're spread all over the world, there's no easy way... which is why I allowed bidding after your time slot, but anyone slotted AFTER you but bids before you gets their choice of course ;)"
