This sounds like a way better deal than that CQFO thing that a few fell for over at TSA.....

Your flow time is only dependent on the attrition above you and the hiring at mainline. Unless you think age 65 will go away, pilots can magically fly with no medical issues for age infinity, the economy will crash, and the airlines shrink, there is nothing holding back the hiring at mainline.

It has everything to do with it. You're making guesses and assumptions it'll be 6 years when you still have FOs with 6 years seniority. The facts are right now it's almost twenty years to flow to American from envoy. When and if that changes I will acknowledge it.

I guess you're too dense.

It's pointless to listen to this guy. He doesn't understand how numbers work. A pilot hired 15-20 years ago at Envoy took that long because of the situations that happened with AA hiring. That experience has no bearing on the flow time of those getting hired at Envoy. The flow time of an Envoy pilot hired today is only dependent on the hiring at AA. That is it, not the time frame of those flowing now.

If you were a hot dog, would you eat yourself?

Really short captains right now, just upgraded and I'm already getting used like crazy!

How many envoy pilots that flow to AA actually make it through training?
