Actually, the breakdown was:

around 800 AA "natives"
around 1200 ex TWA
then another batch of 385 "natives

So the actual furlough #s of "native" and ex TWA were almost identical.

Today, they have recalled all the way down to the last ex TWA and are currently at 235 AE flow thrus as well as the 385 natives at the very bottom (those are the natives that went below ALL of TWA.)

Actually, it crept into the 4Q1988 hires also.

Thanks for the info. I can remember wanting to apply to American, but I hit 1000 121 PIC right after 9/11. I was fortunate enough to avoid a downgrade and stayed a sim instructor.

Quote: Mike, we (APA members) just received a mailing on the equity stake.

If she takes the recall before the end of the SQP (Supplementary Qualification Period), which is a fancy way of saying sometime before Aug or Sep or thereabouts, the SQP not being set yet, she will have equity stake if she signs a letter of agreement, and attends class no later than 90 days after the end of SQP.

If she does NOT accept recall, then she gets diddly, regardless of her time at AA.

You are right, big decision for her. My thought is that her seniority post-integration will more than compensate her for loss of the equity stake. $$100,000 isn't a bad chunk of change, but it's less than one year's salary at her current seniority.

The "silo" model is complex. The equity stake will vary between pilots. If it is not done fairly, then there will be some bad blood. My great hope is that the mathematics behind the silos creates a scenario where the least compensated pilot will get no less than, say, 85% of the highest. So the ideal range (IMO) would be 85% - 100%. If we see some B.S. like pilot A gets $260,000, and pilot B gets $35,000, it'll hack me off.
Thanks for that info. I hope that it works out well for you. Your idea of a 85% range sounds reasonable. I know at LCC our profit sharing is divided equally among all active pilots for the year. Not sure how the retro bonus or whatever we are getting will be payed out at but it should be the same methodology

The above numbers are incorrect. The more accurate numbers are:

Around 380 AA "Natives" ( hired after all the TWA pilots)
Around 1200 ex TWA
Another batch of 385 that was comprised of both natives and TWA pilots ratioed into the list 1-7.

I wasn't 100% sure that it sadly went down to some 1988 hires.

Unfortunately that is how I remember it as well.

Just because the total number of furloughs were almost equal it was fair? 1200 was about half of the entire TWA pilots, captains included. With those same captains being nowhere near the left seat 12 years later.

Bean, you are welcome. I remember wanting to fly for American as well when I was flight instructing out of RDU back in 1990-1991. Well, I guess I got my wish granted and now the proud holder of a PRN that starts with the number 6.

Anyone know if the second group of flowups have been called and when their decision date is? I know the April 6th is filling and the furloughs above the second group were called.

You would think I might have acquired some patience by now. Apparently not.

Thanks for the correction. I withhold judgment on the term "fair" because "fair" means different things for different folks. All I do is provide the numbers and attempt to correct them if they're wrong. Looks like I was the one wrong.
