You know nothing about our airline. We have just over 300 pilots. Out of the first 100 the most would be 50 going. In 4 years the pilots that are on the current List should be GONE!! If our fleet grows so does the flow. Not to mention not only do pilots want to go to American. Delta will be hiring 100 a month indefinite, United and JetBlue. It will go fast.
Plus there are so many people that live in base many don't want to commute.

the ignorance and misinformation in this thread is astounding...
there are grandfather clauses
there is a section detailing that the last 20 of the standing order of 175s are slated for pdt, as are the first 20 options (if AA exercises the order options)
it would take aag 120 days to close us down and transfer the majority of our flying to existing contract carriers (with the exception of a tiny handful of routes that would disappear) and they would most certainly do it as it would let them really put the screws to eagle(sorry, they're never going to be 'envoy' to me)

Honest question... Who do you think they could possibly "transfer the majority of your flying" to, especially in "120 days"? Hint: everyone is having a hard time staffing their current flying.

that was given as a direct quote from someone at aag, they apparently already have that contingency figured out

Please don't ever trust management... especially when they're trying to get your pilot group to take concessions(while they are making record profits of > $1,500,000,000.00 per quarter, and giving themselves huge bonuses and pay increases)!

Don't believe all they say, it's all BS.

Hate to break it to you, but they are currently executing plan B if you aren't aware. Little off the time frame, but they are doing exactly what they said they were going to do.
