How creditable is your source of this information? For starters, AA is the ONLY airline with a current flow program. Delta is flowing Compass guys from a discontinued Flow that they had started with NWA and they only offer guaranteed interviews to Endeavor pilots. United has unilaterally stated they will never set up a flow program. The only airlines with an actual true flow (not requiring an interview and offer of employment) is envoy and PDT. PSA only guarantees you an interview at AA. (Stick around and we might or might not offer you a job one day) Since AA has began hiring again, they have always met the obligations of that flow and NEVER annulled such programs. Never. Please read between the lines of some of the posters concerning the flow. Many, I would guess are former envoy pilots that were spooked by the pressure Parker put on us and bailed for other regional airlines chasing quick upgrades. I would guess the rest are employees of non wholly owned companies that are fearful that they might be the next airline that announces stagnation and shrinking due to their inability to staff their Air Service Agreements.
