2. American Eagle pilots hired under this settlement agreement will not be subjected to a pre-employment interview or pre-employment medical examination prior to transferring to American Airlines.

3. American Eagle pilots will be offered a minimum of 35% of every American Airlines new-hire class. In the event that 35% of American Airlines’ new hire class is greater than 25 pilots per month, American Eagle will be required to release at least 25 Eagle pilots per month.

4. If American Eagle loses flying and such loss results in a furlough, American Airlines will increase the percentage of Eagle pilots in their new-hire classes to a minimum of 50%. The meter above will continue to apply.

5. If American Eagle loses flying and such loss might result in a furlough, American Airlines will also attempt to negotiate preferential interviews for American Eagle pilots at the carrier who has successfully bid for the flying that Eagle is losing.

6. This settlement does not impact the existing rights of American Eagle flow-through pilots who currently possess American Airlines pilot seniority numbers, or the rights of the 824 pilot positions awarded as remedy by Arbitrator Nicolau. Those provisions are in place and will remain effective without regard to this settlement agreement.

7. American Eagle has agreed to clarifying contract language regarding the scope of work that American Eagle pilots perform in the event of a divestiture.

What is a best guess of when someone hired October 1st would hear from American?

Seems like an amazing amount of hiring to reach that level.

So for all of you debating on whether to interview with Eagle vs. Chautaqua vs. AWAC, etc... the correct answer is now Eagle.

I'm not so sure I'd go that far... see below.



A rough calculation if everyone accepted, based on the minimum 35 % of each new hire class, AA would have to hire roughly 4000 pilots for everyone to be offered a position at AA.

As a newer hire at Eagle I can't say I'm too comfortable with our position right now. This agreement means squat if you no longer work for Eagle when your "time" comes.

So almost 8 years give or take depending on how many senior people with a good qol pass on the offer.
