The second that the flow is no longer deemed valuable...8+ years, pilots getting held up for minor infractions, etcetera...pilots will immediacy go to XJet, Republic, Endeavor, Skywest, and all the sudden AAG must raise WO pay considerably more to remain pilot competitive.

Envoy management may hate the churn the flow creates, or even want to punish us, but AAG does not care. AAG needs the flow to be valuable. I don’t have any idea of how the math works to a 5.5 year flow. I’m clueless to Envoy’s refusal to share the model, as any leader knows the value of transparency.

Moral of the story - I am just guessing, but I don’t see the flow slowing at all.
