Have you guys been hearing the rumors that 2017 will be 100% flows to AA from the wholly owneds? One of our union guys was saying something about that recently and it was also mentioned in a union email. I know we (PSA) go back to the table this summer to talk about increasing our flow, and I know you guys are supposed to meter down to 35% of AA classes after a while. I'm wondering if you guys don't stay at 50% flows for longer than they originally said and us and Piedmont go up a little bit.

I know AAG is aware of all the wholly owneds having issues hiring. And yet all they have ventured forth are increased new hire bonuses which aren't likely to work that well given what is being offered by other regionals. Maybe an increase in the flow and a ton of movement combined with added airframes and increased flying at it's wholly owneds is the ace they have up their sleeve?
