Also, great to see those hiring numbers! Looks like the fastest way to AA will now Not be to go to PDT Psa or Envoy.
Nothing much has really changed. The percentage of flows has dropped off a little bit. It’s still the fastest way if you aren’t prior military. The vast majority of those hired off the street will be prior military.
That being said I think there is a “window” that is currently open at the moment for civilian off the street hires... Many pilots haven’t even bothered to apply at AA due to the slim to none chance of being hired off the street. So right now if they were to apply and we’re competitive I’d say their chances haven’t been better to be hired for the past several years. Though personally I know of 3 pilots just hired outside our flow at PSA. So even if they aren’t all flows my gut tells me a lot will still be from the wholly owneds.
