Return from MIL Leave
How long do you have to be out on MIL leave to return to an open vacancy instead your previous assignment? I may have 30-60 day orders coming up and want to know what my options will be when I come back prior to accepting.

I'm not exactly sure what you're asking, but you can be gone for five years and still get whatever seniority you would have had if you'd never left. 30-60 days is not that long really. I'll be gone for 180 soon.

I don't think it will work if your plan is to go on short term orders and then expect to use ML return clause in CBA to get a new aircraft awarded. This paragraph in CBA is what allows change in aircraft... So if a bid is awarded while you are on ML and someone junior to you gets the seat/fleet/domicile then you can be awarded... If not within your period of mil leave you get the aircraft and domicile you last came from...
12-D-3-b-(2) The Category to be awarded is one in which the Pilot’s seniority would have entitled him to fill during the vacancy bidding process while he was on military leave; and

you don't get an option to "accept" anything. If you are on a long term leave of absence USSERA covers how the process works as far as accepting the terms to come back to work. Different animal. You would have a finite period of time to let the company know when you are available, etc, and then the company has a finite time to put you back on paid status. Short term stuff is pretty simple.
