Advancemnts - four year look back
320 FO - 62% company wide (47% in junior bases).
767 FO - 90% company wide (89% junior base). G4 FO - unable. At the current rate it will be 4 yrs and 10 months and late summer 2019. CA - at the current rate it will be 5 yrs and 1 month to upgrade. The train has exited the tunnel and is approaching the station. |

It's the ability of a guy hired four years ago to hold different seats and an estimate of when he can hold seats currently above his seniority.
As retirements increase those time periods should reduce. In the last four yrs roughly 1950 known retirements were forecast. In the next fours years it's about 2950-3000. Basically that shifts all of the data points I posted about a year sooner for a late 2018 new hire vs a late 2014 new hire. The large increase in retirements is throwing some of the old rules of thumb, at least in the short term, out the window. Guys getting hired now will initially have faster advancement than the guys hired four years ago. But obviously the guys hired four years ago will always be ahead of them. The junior CA seniority dropped over a 605 numbers in a year after adjusting for the seniority change. Basically the same number as retirements. Which means I screwed up the projected CA upgrade date. It's more like 6 yrs +/- a month instead of 5 yrs and a month. The increase is retirements will make future advancements quicker until the upgrade time is past the peak retirement years. I'd guess the cross-over estimate for that is 2019-2020 for new hires. Instead of having a 5 yr upgrade they'll revert to six years, then seven, etc. Looking at the difference between the bottom guy and the junior CA and it's about 3700 numbers. So a guy hired in five years (2023) is still looking at about 7 yrs to advance 3700 numbers. That's for the junior guy and most won't take that opportunity so their upgrade time will be longer. But it will be nothing like the last decade when it reached 17 yrs +/-. |

I think it’s data for someone hired in Nov 2013, which is when off the street hiring started at AA. I’m at 4.5yrs and those are pretty close to the numbers I’m looking at. Both CA and group 4 FO are around 5yrs and within a couple months of each other.
Talking with a late 2014 new hire the other day and we were talking about his future opportunities. That is what caused me to look into the numbers. He could be a decent n/b line holder, or 767 reserve, but already positioning himself, due to the two year training lock-ins, for the G4 FO vs CA upgrade. At the two year mark. The advancements is like the mid and late 1980's all over again. Crazy. But the difference is back then it was based on growth. Now it's based on retirements which is a much better, and reliable, forecast. |

But it can't be that great if it leaves the reader confused! :D |
The cannon has finally fired!
Good stuff Slice |
If flying remains flat and there is no increase in mandatory retirement in the next five years. I believe more flying will go regional and 67 or 68 will become the new max. One will mandate the other and satisfy the flying publics needs. Don't shoot the messenger but I see it coming. Probably similar to the 60 to 65 change IMO.

Meanwhile Doogie keeps ordering new 175s, thus supporting your theory. :rolleyes: |
