You flow, and then become a first year AA pilot on pay step one. Prior to that you are either an Envoy or Piedmont pilot. Whomever is hired at AA prior to you flowing is senior to you when you eventually do flow.

As mentioned, Piedmont gets 3 and PSA I believe gets 4 a month. And in both of those cases I believe they are only guaranteed an interview. It's not really an actual flow.

Envoy does have an actual flow with no interview. Right now it's 20 a month. Rumor is that the latest contract offer from AA that should drop any day now will have an enhanced flow. The contract which was rejected earlier this year would have enhanced our flow from 20 to the first 30 new hires at AA. I expect any future "enhanced flow" offer to be similar.
