Note two: If there are more pilots who have bypassed recall that seek to return to duty than the Company has determined is required, such pilots will be returned to duty, in seniority order and prior to any new hire, in conjunction with Company scheduled new hire or recall classes,

I am not sure what contitutes a recall class or how it is determined, but it looks and sounds like it has NOTHING to do with hiring or new-hires.....

the recall class seems to always be referenced with an "or" in contract language.

I am unsure if flow-through pilots are not defined as new-hires though.
