Wait for the BU line results. We did lose 10% of flying, which I believe means we are parking the remaining 4/10 aircraft next month. I'm sure that it will catch up.

Like I said 2 months ago. American is taking two banks of flying out of PHL.
Plus I'm sure they are starting to wind down some AWAC flying.

At current attrition levels, it looks like at least 2 planes a month will need to be parked..... Maybe more..... The fat lady is not just warming up, she has started singing..... I feel for you guys..... Management has completely let the Pilot group and all employees down.... Sad....

Planes don't need to be parked to reduce flying. MX issues are already climbing to the extent that extra planes sitting around would only benefit the suffering operation.

However not everyone wants to work for American and that leaves Delta/United and few others. Have a job for sure in your back pocket at American can be nice if that's what you want when selecting an American WO'ed.
You know AWAC pilots who were hired at AA? (Not USAirways). There has been 2-3 AWAC pilots hired at AA in the past decade and a half.

Wait, so you do know of AWAC pilots who went to AA or not? I agree the door did close which is unfortunate for AWAC pilots. AWAC has some of the finest crew members!
