Why would military people have to jump the line? Spend a year or two at a regional then flow up to mainline just like everyone else.

And how do XJT/SKYW/RAH... any independent, non-mainline owned regional convince ANY new pilots to go work there? How do they keep anyone below 5 years seniority from leaving to a regional with a route straight to American? I can see above that seniority staying put especially if close to upgrade. But having too few new FOs seems like a better problem to solve than having none.

If AA makes this move the other regionals/majors will have to do something to keep their planes flying, no?

They already offered exactly that to envoy. They admitted class sizes will shrink to 30 over the summer. The TA envoy rejected gave them not only 1/2 of each class, it gave them the 1st 30 seats. If there are only 30 per class, guess where all -ALL- the hiring was coming from.
If the company hadn't tried to rape them, this flow would now be in place already.

That is something that I think gives your prediction validity. When Pedro and Winkles came out and said that it would be the FIRST 30 in each class, there was the possibility that the flow could basically make 100% of all AA classes Eagle pilots only. Apparently that is something they (AAG/APA) were okay with.

Ok I'll be the one to ask it- out of sheer curiosity, the person who's sharing this inside information with you is ok with you posting most, if not all of the details of the company's future operational strategy that has yet to be announced on a public forum?
