Lots of guys with lots of experience not getting the call.
The AA wholly owneds are mostly the last ones to the party with the recent pay raises amongst the regionals over the last year or two.
Also, our soft pay rules suck. Even though our pay rates at PSA are similar to Republic and Endeavor... they’re still making 25-50% more than PSA pilots. The day the AA wholly owneds earn the same as the other top players is the day the flow ceases to exist. The only point of the flow is to keep costs low.
