AA will be down 40 something hulls this year. I don't have the fleet plan for subsequent years in front of me, but for now, there is shrinkage.

Latest reports from Envoy pilots are that F/O's with 4.5-5 years cannot hold a line and are on reserve. Charlie Bucket still seems to have a looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong road ahead to chocolate covered glory.

Doesn't that say to you that there is still some serious overstaffing going on?

What hasn't been reported is reserve on the CRJ. It's only 8-9 months. And the E-175 now going to new hires is projected to be shorter than that.

Which makes withholding flows all the more ominous regarding the future as Envoy shrinks clogging upgrades and further gluing up the flow.

Not being able to have a line and choosing reserve are two different things.

Even worse since pilots can't transfer between planes meaning senior pilots will be trapped in reserve when more junior hold hard schedules.

What a mess.

But again, since F/O's cannot transfer between planes, the seniority system is worthless there.

Nothing enticing about a broken seniority system for any pilot, new or not. Sounds like a very helpless feeling to me.

Your gleefulness is very off-putting.

Jeez man, get a life. 90% of your posts are for a company you have no attachment to whatsoever. Whether or not envoy lives up to the hopes and expectations that it's current pilots have for it, shouldn't matter to you. You clearly have all this time on you hands to post on APC, so why is it all spent on the envoy thread? Serious question.
