KH: We have 40 175s arriving and Envoy is positioned to get more airplanes. Envoy has reliability "knocked out of hte park" and costs so the airplane should be arriving.

Sam: Previous management did everything they could to minimize the flow. Explains limit of 50%/30 meters. Given Envoy has excess staffing, the full flow should be going.

RI: More than 30 causes a disruption at the size of an airline like Envoy. Plan for 50% of AA hiring classes to be flow through COMBINED from Envoy, PDT and PSA. 30 a month is the plan

=======================
1) Why all the under guarantee lines, tons of reserves not flying, and ZERO TIME LINES if our staffing is so tight?

2) The envoy flow (as directed through arbitration) is for envoy pilots to occupy 50% of all new hire positions at AA (metering withstanding). NOT 50% including all other wholly owned airlines.

This management team is not to be trusted in the least! Contracts are barely even a suggestion of how things should be run.
