Good luck with that boys. AA will only go further down the perverbial glory tube. I for one wouldn't work there if I had too. Haven't even applied. I've saw enough of the glorious operation know as AA/airways in the past few years to know I'd never want to work for them. They are the spirit of the majors. I'll hold out for better.

Oh the stuff I've heard and seen. Don't get me wrong, I appreciate the rides and I am sure that its not everybody as a whole.... but man it sure does seem you guys are attracting the junior varsity team in terms of new hires.

As Piedmont is filling classes and actually a good % of new hires are AWAC peeps.
Those great AWAC people you speak of will get hired at the other 3 Legacy carriers or if American is high on there list they can go to one of the WO's for a quick upgrade and a guaranteed job at American.
As for lucky. Hmmmm, I guess AirTran people are lucky (SouthWest). I guess America West Pilots..the airline that everyone went to if they didn't get hired at Delta, United, or Airways should now feel lucky they work for the worlds largest airline.
It is what it is. Do I feel lucky? Hell no. Fortunate is more like it because I avoided the road of all the furloughs and pay cuts in the late 2000's. Lucky I don't feel that way at all.

The guys flowing to AA from Envoy went through the same interview process as AA street hires. PSA and PDT will/do hire anyone with a pulse and sadly those pilots will flow to AA. Reason you're not updating your resume is because you know you have no chance at AA.
