Maybe Slick was talking about having to fly with you. Sounds like you are a real joy to fly with.

Thank you for the imput, I'm just trying to wrap my head around all of this.
How would I destroy the chance of going to American by going to PSA? Is it because I had heard something about PSA flying Envoy's old CRJ700 aircraft? I had had someone tell me there was some friction recently over this.

I have long thought that PSAs hiring of a bunch of old guys from PDT, a tiny little airline that never saw growth or expansion was bizarre. These dudes are all in way over their heads. If you were growing an airline from tiny to pretty damn big like PSA, wouldn't you hire the best guys out there? Not nobodies from PDT?
The management has always been responsible for stiffling PSAs growth, now more than ever.

The sad part is everyone can see it except for the kuntry inbreds in charge lol.
And yes ,I said KUNTRY.
Hopefully something changes real soon for you guys. Pos contract,horrible schedules and,work rules, **** poor management, ...man.
How are those new, cramped,****y 900's looking now??The ones that all customers hate??Smh..

Been hearing of lots of FOs leaving recently. I know of several personally who haven't even been on property for a year and are bailing for greener pastures. Management better solve some problems quickly or else the exodus might just get worse.
Fix the SAP. Attract new hires and retain pilots with a clear and direct career path to AA (12 to 16 /month would work well)
It seems like the company is always losing the forest for the trees and has handled the rapid growth less than gracefully. And there are a lot of options out there right now for qualified pilots.

Even the best flow negotiated will be no more than 25% as Envoy has 50% and PDT has 25%.
If you are here at PSA you are here for the quick upgrade. In and out. There is 70 more airplanes supposed to be coming, plenty of opportunity for a quick upgrade for a while.
If you can live with all this, then this is the place for you. If not, get in the flow line elsewhere.

First year FO's generally do not SAP as they are not senior enough.

It's clear pilots value quick upgrade. And why shouldn't that be #1 on a pilots list anyway, American Airlines is not the only game in town.

If PSA can't staff them then I don't know who can. Last I saw people were banging the door down to get here, pushing 60 pilots per month through.
