Here and now, I am officially changing my iron clad statement to "as iron clad as can possibly be made."
My point which I distracted everyone from, was that unlike psa the PDT flow cannot be reduced or halted for any reason. When I have a chance tonight I will go back and read the ENY letter again but I believe they can be reduced and have been the last couple months.
My bad ya'll, I was being a d!ck.
Nope, ENY is 50% of each class and may be witheld to 20 if certain conditions are met. After the E175 arrives, the 20 changes to 30. It's all still subject to 50% of the new hires in class though, and since AA doesn't seem to run classes over 40 (yet) then 50% is 20 in the class. That's the short version. There are other groups that carry over different things with them as well. All will carry company time for purposes of AA travel benefits towards retirement requirements.
They are supposed to send more when able also.
That said, currently this year AAG shows on their charts that Envoy pilots have been 68% of all the new hires at AA this year. Between ENY, PDT & PSA well over 70% of all AA hiring comes from their regionals.
