I think most are happy to have flow but most also hate the way Envoy uses unrealistic numbers for recruitment purposes.
If you were told you’d flow in 5 years and believed it, made it your reason for being here. Would you not be a little miffed when you got on property and realized that a 5 year flow is almost impossible for you?
It’s also a bit annoying how pilots here basically zero in on flow as the only way out of here. When I talk to people that work for other regionals and they have multiple references at multiple airlines because people are trying to get out where ever they can. Here, everyone has tunnel vision for AA so most of your networking is going to be with people that go to AA. And AA doesn’t hire a lot of regional pilots outside of flow.
