I disagree completely. American seems to be taking a different approach to staffing its flying needs than Delta and United. I think Delta and American have a good idea about how to staff their WO regionals and control their product. United I think will begin falling behind in this respect very soon and their regional feed will be the first to hurt. But hey, the whole regional pilot shortage is about to turn into a train off the tracks by summer 2017. Who knows what happens next...
