Flow backs
What would it take for the union and PSA pilots to accept a limited number of potential furloughed AA former PSA flowbacks? All flow backs would be DECs of course and get their base of choice on the bottom of the captain list. Only former PSA flows could come back and the total number would have to get capped around 100-120. The PSA guys hired off the street at AA would not be eligible for flow back. Maybe you guys would accept in exchange for double flow when AA starts to hire again. All hypothetical considering AA probably won’t furlough. Understand it would be a 3-way Deal between PSA, PSA-ALPA and AA. Double flow sounds nice right?

Hows about all of us lay off the internet for a while...

I have mixed opinions about this, but even if it were to happen... wouldn’t the flowbacks have to requal and go through initial training again? Even if that process started tomorrow it would be almost 3 months until they finished training and at that point I think we would be on the upswing and starting to hire again. That or we would only need them for 1-2 more months. Which, would make the whole flow back idea absolutely pointless.

OP; you made the jump and now you take your chances. Want to flow back? Resign your current gig and become a new street hire again. Bottom of the list.
