7800 using the post rule 117 standard of 13 pilots per hull. AA also has 49 MGT pilots, 1 VPFLT, and 31 Base CP, so add about 81ish there that don't fly, it fluctuates. Just add an extra 100 to cover all that stuff.
AA also has 496 Check Airman, 212 CRM guys, 650 MDSB and 13 still in Tulsa....

Current pilot breakup is
BOS 272
CLT 1492
DCA 642
LAX 2018
LGA 1485
MIA 2447
NHB 71
ORD 1056
PHL 1574
PHX 723
TUL 13

pre coronavirus passengers per base was:
DFW gets the most traffic at 23%; DCA the lowest at 3%, but only because LGA and JFK combined turn 5%. CLT gets 18%, MIA at 13%, ORD 12%, PHL 9%, LAX 7%, PHX 6%....

In order of departures per year it was:
DFW 284k
CLT 231k
ORD 165k
PHL 156k
MIA 117k
PHX 100k
DCA 84k
LAX 66k
LGA 54k
JFK 35k
Yes, I have the actual complete number, I just rounded down... except one I rounded up.

There's the numbers kids....

I'm sure the Kooj will be here shortly to claim it's a lie.....

 

This is great info but how does it now correlate to post pandemic? I am still working on second coffee so may be missing something glaringly obvious 😂

 

Just the first paragraph which responded to how many pilots it would take for post CV19 600 plane AA. The rest was more recent data pre corona...

 

#1. YOU DON'T EVEN WORK HERE.

Now, that said, your pilot totals per base are close and your departures are as well. That's information that any Tom, Dick or Harry can come up with and post here. However, you lost me at 600 plane fleet post COVID. I can't stop guffawing. You just can't take it that you are no longer in the know or right in the circle of information like I am now. Of course along with the fact that you don't work at American Airlines.

Your prediction here is TOTALLY FALSE. It's nothing more than you pulling a number out of your rear end and slapping it on here. Yes, of course there is a big draw down at present because of the virus. That doesn't indicate a 600 plane fleet going forward as we recover. How do I know? Well, I'm in on meetings that have covered some of the numbers most of which I can't share but wouldn't be comfortable doing even if I could....AT THIS MOMENT. Why don't you explain where you got your numbers? Oh wait, that's right. YOU CAN'T because you don't have any real information.

Case closed.

 

remember this prediction?

THE FLOW WILL NOT STOP.

your predictions are also, TOTALLY FALSE.

 

Someone else asked about a 600 airplane fleet. That’s where the number came from.

I’m confused. I thought you don’t work here either. This is an ENY board, I thought you claimed you flowed to AA?

 

Wrong. This is akin to a natural disaster or force of nature. You can't PREDICT that. AA has a temp freeze on hiring so during that time and that time alone, the flow is paused. Simple as that.

 

I did. I'm just not a hypocrite saying I'm AA at Envoy and then pulling up the ladder behind me. If you are Envoy, you are AA and vice versa.

 

The mental gymnastics you go through to always be right are insane.

 

no, no you’re not. you’re actually at envoy, which, believe it or not, isn’t AA.
