sorry if this was already mentioned, but how many AA'ers are still on the street ?

1887. I don't think the 80 from Feb. are included. Ballpark for 1/2 the sen. list to retire is 2026.

As of the Jan 21st update, 1,887 still on furlough. Then add the March 1st furloughee's of around 100 so a total of 1,987.

For those AE pilots who think you just won the lottery at the expense of the AA pilots on furlough, I hear IF you are brought over before the furloughed then the AA pilots have an extra special training program waiting for you. Better study hard, your REALLY going to need it.

p.s. That's not flame bait either. I spoke to a AA pilot instructor on the jumpseat the other day and he said many of the AA instructors have family or friends that are furloughed and who will be severely affected by this. Long story short, they are not to happy to train "replacements".

is that the entire half of the total pilot bodies at AA? That is quite a number of folks then...

The last hiring boom was what? 1987 thru 1991 ? Say the average age was 30 back then, then we are talking 2021 for age 60 and 2026 for age 65.

Can we expect another boom in 2020 ?

Sounds like a lot of rule 32 violations. Guess some of those poor Eagle guys are going to move on up the list. I wouldn't worry about training the Eagle guys. They never had train to proficiency like AA guys.
You do realize that you come across like a spoiled grade schooler. Let me guess you want your marbles back now too.
