It's the language that dictates how a dispute with the WAY the Bloch award is applied.
For instance- if someone thinks that the quota numbers shouldn't count during displacements then it would go to a dispute resolution process. If the merger committees couldn't agree on the solution, then it would go to Bloch and he would give his decision.

I'm thinking exactly what Smittey said: quotas not counting during a displacement. With the quotas in place, you're going to have a lot of -200 and Q400 guys getting booted back to FO while there are junior -900 CAs still holding on.

Colgan wants to have cake and eat it too? If it applies to vacancies, it should apply to displacements. And isn't it written pretty clear? "No pilot may be awarded or displaced... unless so and so maintains a minimum of x positions."

Pinnacle guys could get double screwed in all this: 9E FOs that got "jumped" in the SLI by Colgan guys didn't get that upgrade they thought was coming in a few months. Now, some of the 9E CAs that have been CAs for 5+ years could lose their seats, too.
Basically, this is what SHOULD be fair: quotas based on what proper staffing levels should be on the -200, not what they were on July 1st, 2010 because Pinnacle likes to short staff everything. For that fact, it should be based on proper staffing levels on the -900 as well. Then it's an even playing field. I'd say the same thing about the Q400 and the Saab, but management has run us into the ground so much, it's become a moot point.

Those ATL 900 CAs can only displace Mesaba 900 CAs down to their minimum fence, which they are only a few over. They can't displace out MSA 900 CAs. Those 900 CAs will then have to go to the 200 and displace out junior MSA and PCL CAs
I'm sure you already knew this

Shy, it's Pinnacle pilots up for the screwing. Where do you think those PCL ATL 900 pilots are going to go? If you said CRJ 200, you are correct.
