After they upgrade, more senior F/O's will get it on a freebie displacement. Sure, a few slots may go to new hires, but with only 100 F/O's or less out of a 2000 pilot shrinking airline running dusplacements along with projected upgrades, we're talking a handful of new-hires.

The Tide is Turning
Soon there will be announcements of additional block hours Envoy will be flying.
Over the next two months we will put up to 5 extra EMB's back into service from flyable storage. This is primarily due to contractor failure to be able to staff their airline, and that feed flying returning to Envoy.
Two additional EMB's will enter service in DFW this month, and up to 3 more next month. The monthly schedules have already been built, so I expect this flying will be dumped into open time as critical coverage premium.
As I have repeatedly stated. The new currency is staffing. Whomever has the staffing will get the flying. This is flying coming back to Envoy is returning from Mesa.
Look for more good news soon as well.

If it was me, I would probably hold off for several months to come to Envoy until the 175s come on the property. That way you can be assured you have a chance to fly it without worrying about seat locks. Also you could come to PSA for six months then just leave and go to Envoy once the 175s show up.

Envoy is not slated for "growth" by managements own admission. They are transferring aircraft to others and upgrqding half the pilots projected to flow. If one wants a faster upgrade and flow to AA, Piedmont is now out-advertising Envoy with 1.5 year upgrades and 4-5 year flow. PSA will undoubtedly soon come out with their own rosey projections that I'll bet beat Piedmont's leaving lowly Envoy in 3rd place in the fuzzy math sales race.

I heard this last Friday. From the sound of it, what's apparently happening now is AAG capitalizing on Envoy's TEMPORARY staffing surplus to give some breathing room to the too rapidly expanding PSA/Piedmont operations. By early next year, they will be caught up and most likely Envoy will be closer to being "right-sized" with another several hundred pilots gone and the temporary requirement of Envoy carrying PSA and Piedmont's water will no longer be necessary.
Enjoy it while it lasts.

This is 5 more planes into service requiring that many more upgrades as well. This is Eagle flying that was subbed out to Mesa, not Republic.
We have many more jets in flyable storage that we'll be happy to put back in service. More upgrades, and with our 6 year flow to AA;
It's a great time to be an Envoy pilot.

No "American Eagle" operator will be favored status in the future. Doug doesn't operate that way. Right now, they are just managing their resources, which is what businessmen do. Dopey pilots frequently see that and think it's about them and some of them even try to convince even dopier ones it is. The dopiest of all, believe it.
