If the 145s hit the property in Jan 2016 (one year from now), and if AA hires every single month in 2015, that's only 3/mo = 36 PDT pilots.
That's 10% of your seniority list at AA by Jan 16th--not half.
Goes to 4/ month in the fall. Not huge but still an additional 12 / yr. Looks like 50ish guys at the top will bypass til they can collect their pension at 65
