In short, if you can hold the lowest % you are requesting on your AE card for your current aircraft, will you hose yourself out of a possible line by submitting a VD? Or will the company say "Ok, so and so wants XX% and will hold that on the conversion date therefore we won't even look at his/her VD/MD cards".....???
Thanks in advance, and hope this makes sense.

I think Wilbur answered it above, but as long as your VD card matches you AE card exactly then you will be fine.
For example, your VD card (matching your AE) reads:
1. ATL320B 75%
2. MSP7ER
It will stop when it gets to #1 if you can hold it. If not, then it doesn't matter if it's an AE or VD, you wouldn't have held it either way. As long as both cards match, you can't (as far as I can tell) get something below what you can hold.
Was that the question? Or did I completely mis-interpret what you were asking?
