Probably because the 18 year flows hadn't done a new type in 18 years maybe? And they're old.

Lots of ATRs and Saabs at Envoy still? Those guys were promised a ton and AA screwed them pretty hard, good for them to finally get the call to mainline.

If there are no new hire classes at AA then, yes the flow stops.

Buddy if there is another Great Recession all companies stop hiring not just AA. Did you think of that?

[QUOTE=JetMonkey;2329321]No, but they start to cut capacity which reduces mainline flying which reduces the need for pilots even with attrition.

Haven't been in the biz that long have you.[/QUOTE

Good luck in retirement. Since you've been in the biz so long 65 must not be far away. Thanks for your input and all knowing insight on the future of AA hiring.

Yes, that's why I recommended people looking to hire at a regional, look for one that has both good flow through as well as long-term possibilities.

Look a few posts back.
