Why would they do everything, and spend all the $$$ to get them set up on our certificate, with the options placed here already after our initial 40.. then waste all that time/money all over again for Piedmont to get them too? Unless you guys plan on signing some PSA type backstabbing deal it isn't happening. Plus, have you seen the scope limitations AA is bumping up against for more 175's or 900's? Pretty much any more would be coming at the expense of something else..

and how exactly is your flow going to be "much" faster than Envoy's at only 4/5 month or whatever if your growth stops? Who cares if we are bigger, we flow a much larger number every month and our pilot group is getting smaller. The flow is pretty even..

Yeah, you are right.. we shouldn't compare Envoy to Piedmont. Envoy has an all jet fleet with over 2000 pilots still. Piedmont has around 400 pilots and ZERO jets transferred to date. Only promises.. AA has been delaying our transfers and awarding more flying to Envoy every month since we can actually staff it and are already current and qualified in the airplanes... not saying they won't "eventually" be transferred, with big delays.. but thinking you are getting 175's too is ridiculous.

As for your flow being good for everyone on property if the growth stops, I'm seriously trying to figure out your rationalization. If there's no more growth at PDT and there are very few incoming new-hires, then the only benefit to the flow is anyone currently on property (and hopefully quite senior.) Even then it will be what, 3/month? Aren't your flow numbers predicated on the size of your pilot group? So if there's no growth, then you guys send 3/month (if it's 1 or 2 more then that, I apologize for not getting the number 100% accurate.) At 36-50/year that's going to take a hell of a long time to flow. That being said, are you sure that your flow is better for everyone on property if there is no more growth?
