Don't see anything in there about whichever is less..... I see how you could think that, but I read it as you are entitled to 50% of all new hire slots; the rest just describes how they go about it.
Go back on this (and other) threads. This has been thoroughly discussed. I summarized it.
Stop and think how your statement would be implemented.
If AA hired 26 in a month, Envoy would be entitled to 25 of the 26 slots. That would make it impossible to fulfill contractually required flows from PSA and Piedmont.
If AA hired 200 in a month (realistically possible at maximum retirements), Envoy would be entitled to 100 of the 200 slots. That would be equal to hiring half of Envoy’s total pilots in a single year. That would not be a sustainable operation in Envoy.
Both cases illustrate your interpretation is not what AA would contractually agree to.
I agree it is bad wording, kind of like you don’t not like to avoid double negatives.
