Eaglefly, you're a babbling idiot who still can't answer a simple question. I asked you if you believe DP will stop the flow (after his rah-rah town hall meetings boast how this will be how he staffs the majority of new-hire classes). You seem to think that the flow is worthless for anyone past the 824 and those of us current envoy pilots who "sell" it are doing so for the sole reason that they want others below them. Do I want new-hires below me here? Absolutely! However, I have no reason to believe the flow is a sham as you so eloquently try to preach to us.
As for the flow slowing down due to PBS, merger synergies, etc; is it possible or even likely? Sure, anything is possible. But that doesn't mean the flow is being violated. As long as no relative seniority is being lost, it is what it is. I hope things move full steam ahead, but unlike you, I don't have a crystal ball.
