Sorry, in my class we bid aircraft and base at the same time per what's available.
The thing you need to understand about this place is everything is done manually. This frustrates us because everything is done last minute in a big rush and version 1.0 of the bid is usually followed by version 2.0 and 3.0. The same holds true for bidding your schedule, I can't tell you how many times an email comes out saying something was wrong and you need to rebid and adjust your schedule.
The reason they don't tell you what your class will be before showing up is because they don't know.
