Hi Shelia, welcome aboard and welcome to the thrill a minute world of non-reving.
First you might want to read "How to nonrev", it's full of great tips for both rookies and veterans.

As a general rule, midweek, early morning flights are your best bets. Avoid the last flight of the day, that last flight is kinda like that last elephant in the line at the circus... she has no options. After you've narrowed your flights down, post your flight loads requests in the "checking loads forum"; hopefully you'll get good news.

Keep'em flying
