That and the fact there really aren't many pilots available to begin with.


I heard one class had a few folks who quit because they didn't get the 175 like they were promised.

That may be true of some, but the internet has a LONG memory. Despite the fact that I'm still building my time, I "remember" how American has handled their pilots in the past, and will be avoiding anything to do with them in the future. DAL or UAL are most likely my future target employers; not because of any planes, but because of history - which tends to repeat itself.
