but never really get there, and have fewer retirements before and after. And if AA still had the same fleet size they did a year ago - which they don’t, the excess pilots they have aboard now and the 1500+ furloughed would still take care of their hiring needs to offset retirements until 2024. And then what? How many WO pilots is AAG contractually bound to access when they are hiring? 15 a month? That’s 180 a year. And how many pilots at AA WO regionals? 5200 or so?

So quit with the insults and psychobabble and face facts. Do the research and do the math, or pay someone who knows how to do it for you.

Or at least if you must psychobabble, here’s a psychobabble term you might want to consider:
