This is because people being hired today will fall into the 15/mo flow window (approx) yet we are hiring 60/mo. This does not take into account attrition but it also doesn't take into account subpar hiring months at American (June17, every December, etc).
It's ok though you're already an American pilot. And you look like one too with that lanyard.
