The PDT contract is for E145 type between 37 & 50 seats, IIRC.
Misleading.....it looks like the cotton candy salesman is back !
Again, 1/3 of those pilots were from a different flow mechanism and were required to flow by arbitration. Besides AA wasn't even hiring off the street during then (virtually all of 2013) and couldn't realistically do that until all the Letter 3 flows were over to AA.
In related news, now it seems Envoy pilots are being required to accept slots on the US Airways side and aren't happy about that. In the past, they complained they were being stiffed out of them and now they don't want them when offered.
