In 3 to 4 years no one will need the flow anymore. If you are a captain with 1,000 hours PIC 121 you will go to a legacy way faster than 3 or 4 years if you have a degree and no skeletons in your closet.

The unfortunate reality at “eagle” is that none of this should come as a surprise to anyone who came here. We had absolutely no representation when management forcefully closed MIA and NY, and our union was nowhere to be found to protect any pilots that were affected. ALPA did nothing other than to send us emails to fill out job applications with companies that were actively hiring.
“Eagle” has metered flow in the past and I’m sure they will again. Even as a wholly owned they have to meet or exceed the quota at cost or less set by Doug and they will not allow flights to be cancelled due to lack of pilots because of flow. Contract violations have always been par for the course. Keep the flow in your back pocket and update your apps regularly.

ALPA has plenty of resources to get competent pilots to the table and arm them with deep knowledge to make real CBA gains. Regional contracts are especially difficult given a somewhat transient labor pipeline, young CBAs, and a fair share of pilots working in their first union shop. It's hard to get and stay unified, but we're pulling for ya.

American has regional pilots flying pax for 1/3 to 1/4 the cost of a mainline pilot. Why would they want to cannibalize that? Mainline is fully agreeable to limiting flow. What are the actual numbers of AA new hires from Envoy vs other sources. That’s how you see if it’s really flow or I’d its just smoke.

I didn't realize how sad the PSA flow really was, PDT is almost at the same number with a much smaller pilot group. Almost feel bad for PSA pilots and then i remember 2013.
