"I am new here, and am trying to get a handle on everything. Very nice VA! Just a quick question to attempt to clarify something. I know that when you bid on a flight, it has to be in your region. However, I have seen conflicting info on picking open board flights. I read somewhere that you have to pick one in your region. Then I saw somewhere else that you can pick any open board flight, as long as you have completed your bidded flights. I also saw that you can pick any Atlas flight as well. Can someone clarify the correct way? Thanks. :)"

Hi Greg as long as you complete your 1 bid flight per month requirement ..the rest...open board flights or charters ...are fair game at any time...the rule used to be you had to fly your bid first...but i don't think Justin or your regional Manager will get too uptight about it...have fun!! ;)

Also, the Open Board system has been changed since the last PM update. It used to show you only flights for your region (hence the rule that you had to select a flight from your region) but it as since changed to show you all open GC scheduled flights. Like Mike said, as long as you complete your bid flight, you may select any open board flight that you see on the list and/or any Atlas charter flight as long as you complete one flight before signing up for the next.
