Q: Can a Captain be displaced out of base by a more senior pilot in this bid since there may be displacements?

A: It is possible, however unlikely, that a current captain may be displaced by a senior FO who is upgraded under Section 15.G.4. If that senior displaced FO has a displacement preference for a junior pilot's status, that junior pilot may also be displaced. In such case, the junior pilot's displacement preferences would be considered when moving them to a new status.

If it reaches say an 8yr FO that’s based in DFW then every CA junior to you in DFW should be subject to being reassigned to another base or equipment. “pilots may be assigned to such vacancy in reverse order of seniority among those pilots who meet the minimum qualifications” which means every CA below the most senior FO selected meets the minimum quals to be displaced. That’s the way I read it at least.
