The onus now is on the company to materialize all of this.
To a certain degree, this IS true. There's just one little problem though. As of now and even more so in the near and distant future, there are VERY, VERY few true "new-hires". The pilots Envoy needs just wont be there, especially if Delta and United slap back to any cradle-to-grave scheme AA might announce in the future.
It's simply all hopeful promises and projections. Sure, AA might have X retirements, but that DOES NOT automatically mean all present Envoy pilots will be there in 6 years. The salesman wants you to believe 1+1=6 and that's simply fuzzy math at this point.
