So if Envoy/Eagle is streamlined and becomes the guaranteed (and only) front door to AA, how do military types see that as a viable option? Wouldn't there still have to be a way for those types to jump the line?

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? If the company hadn't tried to rape them, this flow would now be in place already. |

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.
