Not much AMR news among all the DL and UA stuff.
Before AA hires, there are still 250 pilots at Eagle who have seniority numbers, we don't know what the flow rate will be for these pilots but like the post above said much depends on the AA 1113 process and the Eagle contract. After that there is also the remanding AA pilots on the list and whoever has bypassed because of uncertainty at AA might also accept a recall.
