I agree the practice bid aren't accurate but it is not too bad. Of the 40 people awarded HKG or CDG FO, if your name is in the top 25 (in the practice) you can be confident your name will be there when it closes. This is particularly important since these people will go training first.Originally Posted by KnightFlyer
Why not 2 practice bids? Only one is contractual but an extra one would be nice to see (but not real accurate).
What is the reason for having an extended bid? IMO it is so you get more warning before being slammed for training, then moving. One practice bid closing right before the real close does no good. Of course no one from the MEC is affected so don't expect any action on their part.
