American o furlough 400 pilots

[XTW]

What hire date would that reach if they actually did furlough 400?

AE flowthrough mixed in with the Feb 2001 hire "natives".

Q: Will there be a reduction in the pilot workforce as a result of this proposal? If so, how many pilots will lose their jobs?
While we expect about 400 pilot reductions, we won’t have certainty on this issue until an agreement is reached. It’s important to remember that a number of factors play into the company’s staffing needs, including mandatory age 65 retirements, the new flight- and duty-time regulations that will become effective in 2014, and the lead time required to train pilots. We regularly evaluate our staffing requirements and will continue to do so, both in and out of the restructuring process.

And the new staffing requirements with the adoption of the Preferential Bidding System that they will certainly be implementing while increasing the monthly rigs from 68 to 78 hours.

Good luck guys. This really sucks.
