For the record, I am not hatting, in fact I am all for people getting hired outside the flow and would love to see more of it. However, currently these are the cold hard facts of those that have bypassed flow.

AA is not opening the doors and welcoming their WO pilots with open arms. There are plenty of WO pilots that have their app in on AA pilot credentials, but only those "select few" are part of your "trickle" who have jumped years of waiting for flow.
