Right now we are down to 1178 to be offered recall.

The acceptance rate varies. As we go deeper into the furloughs, the acceptance rate will continue going down - especially when we get to the 385 pilots that are below EVERYONE. Many of those guys are CAs at other airlines.

The Co's **UNOFFICIAL** (asterisks are emphasized) guesstimate is that, based on their estimate of the acceptance rate, we should be through all the recalls/AE FTs by some time next year, at which point they should begin hiring off the street. That is why the new VP of Flight was tasked with restarting up the new hire dep't in the near future.

That will be some serious rockstar seniority! I'm sure there will be some chief pilot's kids and interns in the class. More power to them- I'm just jealous it probably won't be me!

As the youngest guy on the property is around 35 or so and there are only a handful younger than 40, the token 23 year old in the first new hire class will be number 1 for at least 12-13 years. Not bad!

We've got guys at UPS who will have been capts at UPS for 40 years when they retire. Like someone said, it's all about timing.

They were captains at UPS at age 25? (25 yrs old + 40 years in CA seat per your statement = 65 mando retire).

Wow.

Almost exactly 1000 guys are less than 47 yrs old.
Just over 500 guys are under 44 yrs old.

Sweet deal for any young guys that get hired early in the cycle.

Retirement statistics for all the legacy carriers show approx. 50% of the current seniority lists retiring by the mid 2020's.

AA73,
"Right now we are down to 1178 to be offered recall." Quick question, my Y2010 List is the current on the AAPiolts site. 1178 does match? what list are you working off?

Hoping to be back soon!

Hi Vortexx, the info comes off of the APA Furlough Info page... # remaining not yet offered recall - 1178. Maybe your # is the total # on furlough? (including deferrals?)

The record I heard of is a 23 year old 727 AA Captain in the mid 1980s. Don't know if it is true.
