1000 hours 121 PIC may define a “well qualified” street applicant, but how many of those do the regionals have? Plenty. The number that have Masters Degrees or even Bachelors is much less, but “well qualified” still isn’t necessarily where they are actually hiring.
Pretty much the majority of non military street hires from Envoy to AA have been check airman

Yes, without a doubt going to get the 20 with the guard.

Recently spoke with a CA for us and apparently that avenue has been shut down. AA won't actively hire our CA outside of the flow anymore.

I heard from a FA the other day that AA will start hiring envoy FOs but only if you're 175 typed, they only want mainline typed drivers.

I call BS on that. We've got a few guys going in for interviews soon.

Call it what you want, but this source would know and has no reason to make it up. Just passing on what I heard. By CA in this regard, I am referring to Check Airmen.

Sounds like he didn't get a call back

And that CA has spoken with the recruiters at AA and has the numbers?

That’s contrary to the evidence.

A lot of guys speculate about whether AA is more or less interested in people who work for the wholly-owneds in terms like "AA won't hire Envoy captains because they want to squeeze as many years of (practically) free flying out of them as possible!" That's probably what this is.

Historically, WO pilots selected outside of the flow at AA have gotten way more slots than the portion of the regional workforce we represent (54 pilots last year out of 397 street hires, 216 of which were .mil).

This individual wasn’t trying to get a call in the first place.
