Any "Latest & Greatest" about Delta?
Perhaps not. Have you been paying attention to the Senate hearings on airline safety? Those folks seem hell bent on ending "commuting". Seems they like the you get in town the night before, get good sleep, before you start your trip rule.

No matter the time line, you will still need the better policy.
Our government sucks, but it's the best money can buy I guess...

Question, and trying to keep this bland and minimal variables, if you have 30 vacancies in a category on an AE and 30 pilots leave the category for various reasons, thus you need 60 pilots now, how many can bid into it before displaced pilots are put into the vacancies? 30 or 60?
I think only MDs go into said category vacancies.
Awarding
AE, VD, and contingent vacancies are awarded in seniority order among pilots whose standing bid contains a preference for the category.
MDs and contingent displacements are awarded in inverse seniority order. A pilot who is being displaced may displace to any category in which there is a pilot junior to him.
A senior pilot may volunteer to be displaced (VD) in lieu of a junior pilot in his current category. A pilot who is being voluntarily displaced may:
a. Displace into a category to fill an existing vacancy that his seniority entitles him to hold,
b. Displace a pilot junior to him in the same position in a different base, or
c. Displace a pilot in any category who is junior to the pilot whose displacement he has volunteered to take.
A pilot’s bid preference for an AE will not be awarded if the award, together with any VD/MD(s) for the same category, would create a surplus that would cause a displacement in the category. In other words, a pilot’s VD or MD bid into a category will supersede a more senior pilot’s AE bid to that category.
A pilot who is awarded an AE or VD may be bypassed and pay protected at the higher hourly rate for the hours paid to him in his current category if his qualification training would be within:
a. Three years of the date he reaches the mandatory retirement age, by mutual consent between the pilot and the Company.
b. One year of the date he reaches the mandatory retirement age, at the Company’s discretion.
