7800 using the post rule 117 standard of 13 pilots per hull. AA also has 49 MGT pilots, 1 VPFLT, and 31 Base CP, so add about 81ish there that don't fly, it fluctuates. Just add an extra 100 to cover all that stuff.
AA also has 496 Check Airman, 212 CRM guys, 650 MDSB and 13 still in Tulsa....
Current pilot breakup is
BOS 272
CLT 1492
DCA 642
LAX 2018
LGA 1485
MIA 2447
NHB 71
ORD 1056
PHL 1574
PHX 723
TUL 13
pre coronavirus passengers per base was:
DFW gets the most traffic at 23%; DCA the lowest at 3%, but only because LGA and JFK combined turn 5%. CLT gets 18%, MIA at 13%, ORD 12%, PHL 9%, LAX 7%, PHX 6%....
In order of departures per year it was:
DFW 284k
CLT 231k
ORD 165k
PHL 156k
MIA 117k
PHX 100k
DCA 84k
LAX 66k
LGA 54k
JFK 35k
Yes, I have the actual complete number, I just rounded down... except one I rounded up.
There's the numbers kids....
I'm sure the Kooj will be here shortly to claim it's a lie.....
