Unfortunately, it probably doesn't matter any more.
The fact that they would delay a Vacancy Bid closing when they "supposedly" don't know if it will pass the MEC Vote should tell us all something.
Everything is being played to ensure a Passing Vote.

Oh Well
Motch

PS) Even if it did get out to the pilot group next Friday.. what is to guarantee the pilot group would vote YES? So why would anyone bid on the current Vacancy bid based on a potential TA? They should be bidding on this Vacancy based on our current (post dated) UPA. So anyone junior bidding on a TA has guaranteed a YES vote and wonder what will happen if they get that Left Seat and then the TA fails?!

You can't make this **** up.
