How do I get that window visible on my Mac? Thanks in advance.

This should be interesting. For any trip that they need to man, there should be two groups of Reserve Line holders (3 if you count the R24, given enough notice) to pull from. Right now I can see the leveling of all the RA guys, but I don't know how the RA+ or RB+ guys would rank. The first half of my period the RB+ folks would be players, and the last half the RA+ would interact. I think we'll have to learn a little.

I flew a trip and thought I would have moved down to the bottom but NO. I was only leveled against myself
for the rest of the month.

It really gives the schedulers flexability and can work for you or against you (usually against me), a real crap shoot.

This month should be very "educational" for us with the new system being inaugurated.

I think the priorities for bidding training slots will be the same, but the process a little different. That "Slide Show" on the pilot.fedex.com home page does a pretty good job of explaining that -- I recommend you view that if you haven't already. I went through it once, and I'll do it again when I have a chance. I have recurrent and a vacation in March (well, actually an April vacation that could be slid), so I'll be studying it carefully before I submit my bid.
