He's a coworker of mine and I think I understand what he was trying to get at. If they run the classes split in August like they did in July, the folks with heavy time (like me and him) might be put into the same aircraft (747/MD) that the heavy time folks were given in July. The split RJ time class was given 757/767, or all domestic for reasons that seem to point to prior experience. Prior experience did force people into aircraft in July and I beleive he was trying to say that he'd be forced into the 747 if they split the classes once again.
