The numbers to the right of the international/domestic designator is the bid of that respective person in the class based on reverse age. The super 80 went very senior because we had a lot of folks who live in the DFW area and this was the only way for them to "drive to work".

I don't know the seniority date, but the junior lineholder at LAX has a seniority number of 14417. Lowest overall seniority number is 14819. 400 numbers from the bottom, which would put them at about a March/April 2017 hire.

I know two of the four guys, both live in Wichita Falls (driving distance to DFW). I would imagine the other two live in or around the DFW area. Huge QoL for those guys. By the time they're displaced they'll probably be able to old another aircraft at DFW.

It’s going to be close. Current numbers has them about 750 (+/-) from holding DFW 737. 900-925 new hires in 2018. They’ll be displaced in 6, 9, or 12 months. Lots of moving parts but they might hang on or be displaced for several months. Being home beats commuting to junior reserve.

Where are you getting 900+ new hires? As pilots shows 730 I believe.

I thought APA and the company originally said 900-925. APA said the company wanted 1100(?) but had simulator availability issues(ALL simulators undergoing FAA mandatory upgrades - industry wide I believe).

But you're right, aapilots says 730. Maybe I'm going crazy.

43% OTS (312). 57% flows(418). Roughly 60 civilian OTS and 250 military OTS if the mil percentage stays near 80%.

I see the APC page has changed recently from 800 to 900. Sure the overall target number will bounce around a bit as we get into the year. It is likely Schoolhouse limitations that will determine where AA ends up 31-Dec-2018.

APC - Is Hiring?: Yes

AA estimates hiring 900 pilots in 2018

TW - thanks, maybe I'm not going crazy. I thought it was 900 and 925 at one point.

In November I was told by the dir of pilot recruitment that 925 new hires in 2018 was just approved.
