It would make sense that if they were going to go with the numbers you posted that they would at least put the poolies in tng and then not hire anymore OTS.

hiring
the words in " " was a direct quote from CLT VP flight Ops He said rest would be street hires but no further info given. Im just passing along non rumor based info so if some of you are passing on another opportunity like Delta or united that maybe you should start considering them. With AA defering a bunch of new aircraft deliveries, implementation of PBS, and parking of the MD80's it could mean a thin 12-18months for OTS
Just as an example, those that were hired at northwest while merger was happening with delta and had class dates or had offers were told Delta would honor the pool but none of those guys were later even offered an interview when Delta started hiring again, so just because you have a conditinal offer, it is just that. AA could say sorry guys its been over a year since we last had a chance to meet with you and things with you and or our need have changed so they flush the pool and start over. It has happened multiple times at numerous airlines over the years so it is a possibility. Not trying to shoot you guys in the pool down but if you are hanging on nothing but an offer, at least be aware that its a possibility, however small, you may never see a class date so dont base major life decisions on it

When did Isom say that? Last Crew News he said 500-600.
Flow agreements take 80% +/- (76% if hiring is 50/month, 84% if 40/month).
Envoy takes 50%. Their guidance is 300 flows next year which equates to 600 new hires total for AA.
