That's a change that would impact the original Envoy upgrade projections also. The 200 projected upgrades may be way too low now.
Discalimer - they change their numbers frequently. This is just their latest stuff.
If AA is planning on hiring 800 next year that means 400 come from Envoy. So we are looking at a little more than 30 flows per month for all of 2016.
That should also drop the upgrade times even further. Not to mention we should start flowing the protected pilot group much sooner. I knew the AA training center was playing catch up and would eventually run larger classes. I just didn't know when.
