They’d much rather poach pilots from another airline’s W/O and put them in a staffing/training bind.

You aren't seriously suggesting that someone starting at PDT (or PSA or The Envoy) now should expect to flow to AA in five years, are you?

There have been at least 6 hired at AA outside of the flow so far this year. Of the new hires that were regional pilots, this is a fairly high percentage. Most street hires were military.

Don’t remind me. I was just looking at the seniority list. When I finally got to my name I gasped. I’ll be in that group being hired right after 2015.

In the first 8 months of the year, AA has hired less than 600. About 300 were flows, and over 200 were military.
Of the less than 100 left, only a handful were regional airline pilots. 6 of those came from PSA and a similar number from Envoy.
Source: Info received from AA after SkyBall. Military makes up the majority of hires.
