Back to the thread topic...rookie question here. Can each fleet's list of pilots be expanded via a displacement bid, or do you have to have a vacancy bid first? I.E., if UPS decides to displace and expand the cadre of A300 F/O's from 200 to 230, do the extra 30 spots have to show up on a vacancy bid first? I know I should read the contract, but I'd rather decipher Chinese military code in my spare time.

Thanks, B2P
