I understand your point, but since the protected pilots (anyone hired before 10/11/11) is an arbitration settlement, I can see AAG wanting to clean that part also.
Specially when most of the still FOs (5 to 8 yrs FOs), which will be better if they flow them before a 2yr PSA/PDT CA.
So I could see a SLI but a change in the flow agreement saying "after 824 and Protected Pilots, this is going to be the flow for everyone". Why do I say this? Simple...they increased the flow for the PP after the 40th e-175 arrives at envoy, 25 or 50% wichever is lower. Before it was only 30% of AA class.
The 824 is an arbitrated decision. The "Protected Pilot" agreement was in exchange for the union transferring ownership of Eagle aircraft to AMR. It's a contractual agreement.
