# Flights – My Bids

My Bids shows every flight you have booked, both on a map and as a list of cards. Everything on this page updates in place, so you never lose your spot while you work.

#### **The Map**

- Each bid is drawn as a route line between its departure and arrival airports.
- The route line matches the colored bar across the top of its card, so you can tell which line belongs to which flight.
- Green markers are departure airports and red markers are arrival airports. Hover a marker to see the airport details.
- When the page opens, the map zooms to show all of your bids. If you have no bids, it shows where you are.
- The buttons in the bottom left corner turn on Sunrise/Sunset, Weather and VATSIM. They remember your choice.

#### **The Bid Cards**

Each card shows:

- **Route**: departure and arrival airport. Click either ICAO to open that airport's info page.
- **Flight number and callsign**
- **Airline logo** for the airline operating the flight
- **Flight type tag**, such as Cargo, Scheduled, Charter, Tour, Event, Assignment, Flying Club, Medevac or Search & Rescue
- **Departure and arrival times** in Zulu (UTC)
- **Distance** in nautical miles
- **Aircraft** assigned to the bid
- **Date added**: when you booked the bid, in UTC, at the bottom right of the card

#### **Finding a Bid on the Map**

- **Hover a card** to zoom the map to that flight and highlight its route. Move your mouse away and the map returns to all of your bids.
- **Click a card** to pin it. A pin icon appears at the top right of the card and the map stays on that flight. You can still hover other cards to preview them.
- **Click the pinned card again** to unpin it.

#### **Buttons**

- **Green headset (SimBrief OFP)**: opens your SimBrief flight plan. It only appears once you have generated an OFP for that bid.
- **Yellow clipboard (Pilot Briefing)**: opens the briefing for the flight.
- **Red trash can (Delete Bid)**: removes the bid. You are asked "Delete this bid?" first. Choose **Yes, delete** to remove it or **Keep it** to cancel.

#### **Changing the Aircraft**

1. Click the pencil next to the aircraft.
2. Pick an aircraft from the list. Your favorite aircraft are listed first.
3. Click the green check to save, or the X to cancel.

Only aircraft with enough range for the flight are listed. Tour bids only list aircraft allowed on that tour. Flying Club bids cannot change aircraft.

#### **Flights in Progress**

The page checks every few seconds for an active ACARS flight. While a bid is being flown:

- The delete button turns into a green plane and cannot be used.
- The aircraft cannot be changed.

Both come back once the flight is no longer active.

##### **No Bids?**

If you have no bids, the drawer shows shortcuts to places you can book a flight: Cargo, Charter, Scheduled and Tours. Patreon members also see Assignments and Club.

##### **Other Tips**

- Use the red double arrow button at the top of the drawer to collapse it and see more of the map. Click the plane button on the map to bring it back.
- On smaller screens, the bid list appears below the map instead of beside it.
- If a delete or aircraft change does not go through, a message appears on the card explaining why.
