5.5… but who’s counting. The only people that had a shot at the 5 year flow were hired in early 2015. The flow rate has been shrinking ever since. At one time it was 50% of every new hire AA position. That was the flow that cleaned the place out fast, after that it has been a gradually diminishing monthly flow, while AA has been steadily increasing classes and class sizes.
the only reason you may stay under a 7 year flow is because United is hiring more of your pilots than AA is.
