Why on Earth do we need that many?
If you follow the AA Recall Rumor thread on this site there has been talk of recalls announced by the end of 2010. So far we havent heard a peep from an official source, but the pieces add up. Supposedly, all AA 737 sim instructors have been called back to the schoolhouse and they have been recruiting more instructors which would signal a big increase in training. If AA starts recalling they will have to go through approx 80 furloughed AA guys, then will call by seniority order. We have approx 216 AE CAs waiting for a call as a part of that process, so that could signal a big movement here at Eagle.

Latest rumors say that the recalls should have been announced already, but someone from high up the food chain at AMR has delayed this because of other related discussions. Stay tuned.
