Let me put it like this: say your libido can only handle 3 beeaches in the sack at a time...or 50% of however many hoes you pick up in a night. If you drag home 6 senoritas you can only take 3 into the bedroom..the other 3 you have to pack into an Uber.

If you bring home only 3 ladies..you better hope one of them is a midget, because you're only banging 1.5 of them. Not all 3.
Ahhhhh...”flow” makes much better sense when properly illustrated....

Perpetual metering is not OK per the agreement. The company is supposed to make "every effort" to send 50 percent. Arbitrarily shutting it off at 25 every single month is a clear violation of the agreement.

If your "interpretation" of metering was correct, the company would have been in violation of flow pretty much every month since flow began. Probably somebody would have noticed by now if that was the case.
This is incorrect: throughout the 824, they pretty much honored the 50 percent, because the 824 had language requiring a TRUE-UP. By the 1,648 pilots had been hired, 824 (50 percent) of them had to be flow-throughs.

From the Union...


Flow Update

"The month of November is slated to see 88 new hires over at AA. Our Contract is clear. We are owed 50% of each and every American Airlines new hire class. 44 pilots should be flowing, however Envoy management is saying 25 flow-throughs for the month satisfies the CBA.

A grievance has been filed over the July, August, and September flow-through, and another is in the wings should Envoy decide that its all-time-high hiring numbers and pipeline of upgrading pilots somehow make it impossible for them to ever possibly comply with our collectively bargained agreement."

Expect a settlement in 3-4 years for 1 PVD per pilot, which will then be denied "due to staffing".

Just in case people haven't noticed, the "flow date" estimates in the most recent union unofficial seniority list have delayed the estimated dates ... AGAIN. It's a clear signal that it is in everyone's best interest to apply to all the majors and try to get hired before the ever-delaying "flow date."

Each month that the flow isn't honored at 50 percent, every single junior pilot is irreparably and unquantifiably harmed.

I'm just trying to encourage people to not be naive and believe the flow will magically speed up.

(I truly wish I would be proven wrong.)

Yes this is much bad news for the pilots of énvoy. I have been saying this was to happen. Too much need for the cheap pilotos at envoy. No need for more expensive ones at AA. You metered now right plus the stop of the flow in September, october and November. It is my understanding that the moving of the flow dates on your union list is 'moving target' always changing. This is how énvoy keep you on the hook.

This is very much so making me pause about going to the Voy (and my class starts in two weeks), 90% of the reason I'm going is due to the flow.

The moment they mess with the flow, this place will implode.
