If this situation is known prior to the TA even being voted on why not just put it in the contract language?
Call me skeptical on this, very skeptical.

This is the language per the TA2015:
The Company will designate rotations that have been awarded to Line Check Pilots that contain the projected OE/TOE block hours fo the pilots expected to complete simulator training in the bid period. Following the award of rotations to First Officers that contain at least 25% of the projected OE/TOE block hours for the pilots expected to complete simulator training in the bid period, the Company may withhold from awarding to First Officers the remainder of such designated rotations.
There are 2 simple words that needed to be put in: "in category". And it should have been there a lot. I would think the NC would've done this:
The Company will designate rotations that have been awarded to Line Check Pilots that contain the projected OE/TOE block hours for the pilots expected to complete simulator training in category in the bid period. Following the award of rotations to First Officers that contain at least 25% of the projected OE/TOE block hours for the pilots in category expected to complete simulator training in the bid period, the Company may withhold from awarding to First Officers the remainder of such designated rotations.
If it was me, it'd look like this:
No changes to C2012.
