It's my understanding that Envoy management is representing a "stable" fleet that they don't expect to shrink, at least in the near future, so there does appear to be some creative representation in that respect as upgrades there will most likely remain tepid because it's unlikely Envoy will be able to bring enough pilots in over the next year or two to remain its current size.
Well, just went to AA Hiring briefing at the WAI convention.

All they said (AA Pilots, one USAir & one AA), classes are 50% flow from envoy, CFI Cadet Program from Envoy. Go to envoyair.com...

No mention of PSA and PDT, only once they mentioned (nothing relevant). PDT and PSA booth where nowhere close AA. Envoy was by the side of AA.

Seems to me the AAG is putting a lot
of effort to replace the flow guys and hiring as much as they can. Talked to the recruiters and they told me this event has the best turn over in a long time.

Meanwhile RAH, Commuteair and Silver booth where empty. Endevour had some guys around. PSA and PDT way back out of sight with some people around.
