anyone with questions about PBS, how to TRY to get what you want, and how "good" it works with little in the contract should get in touch with ANY Continental Pilot.....
They say it goes like this:
Fly a bad month

Wait in anticipation for next bid
Gain hope for good next month when bidding

Wait for results
Get mad at PBS

Fly a bad month
Rinse, repeat....
It is now a term over there "I got PBS'ed"
