I pulled the post you copied because I went to the contract section. It’s vague without a lot of references. I did look at the bid and it appears they followed what you posted however it’s hard to follow all the moving parts.
This part in section 11 is however specific and since they made a point of including it in the contract I think what you post is correct or they would have also posted something similar in the MD section. You could certainly make the case for your interpretation using this.
Exception: There is no requirement to post a vacancy that is filled by a pilot who is reinstated to such position within 180 days or six bid periods of his MD.

source: someone that spoke directly to the lady in charge of posting AEs at the DTW meeting yesterday: "Hey guys, I managed to catch her in Detroit today. No idea what or when with the current AE (tomorrow I hope) but she said the next one will be another moab. May, June, possibly July time frame."
AE frequency will increase in 2018. We had four AEs in 2017; I expect 5 or 6 this year.

If this past year has been any lesson, bid what you want on the next MOAB or be prepared to wait another year. Some exceptions of course...

i agree. I think the MOABs stagnate movement and things go much more senior with the bids outside of the MOABs. I much preferred the every few months AEs we did before the MOAB last year.

Because they also think training a guy with 3 months left to retirement is a good idea. At least they're consistent.

Interesting to senior folks. Training bypass to 11-8-2019 retirement date. First I've seen that exceeded a year. Till now I haven't noticed a bypass over 9 months. OFG
