We all know it going to end. Once we get 40-45 FOs hitting 950 each month then the need for DEC will be minimal. 6-8 months and that may start happening.

Does an AA pilot still take priority for the FDJ on mainline metal if I were to list as a D1 and they were listed as a D2?

Yes. The FDJ seniority is irrelevant to what type of ticket you make.

Yes, they list as D2WP - primary or D2W(something like backup or secondary)
Doesn't have to do with the seats in the back, in that regard they are D2 by checkin time, but does reserve them the FDJ.
I have ridden the JS with both D2WP and D2WS listed and not showing up though

So only 10 pilots flowed from Envoy. Thought it had to be half the class or 29 pilots? What am I missing? Or is the flow being screwed up again?

There are multiple classes each month.

It's usually most flow on the first class followed by a few flowing in the last class.

Pretty sure it still does. It just gives the company the ability to limit it after 29 pilots flow.

If AA hires 10 in one month the we flow five.

Your right. But if they hire 120 we have no claim to 60, unless out of pity they decide to send more. Which they could do at any time with any group if they wanted
