American has just short of 1000 pilots on furlough, and of course they will come back first. The recall acceptance rate is around 20% so if that stays true, only about 200 of them will come back. After that comes the flowthroughs, then comes the preferential hiring guys/gals, and THEN the rest. Yes its going to take quite a while, but it will help keep the movement going for those of us in the bottom half...
