I think 13 were in the first class this month at AA. 11-12 are left in the pool after that group left. They will likely fill the August class with the next selection covering September and beyond.

Makes sense. Thanks for the update on the pool. 40 days since the last selection, I suppose we won't be getting anything quicker until the "T" group is done and then the holidays hit and it slows again.

I don't think Sr FOs wants to bid the 175 of it means a seat lock. Most guys are just waiting for upgrade. Maybe 2014-2015 hires want the 175 for the better relative seniority.
The list will balance itself eventually, once the 175 FOs are stuck there until 2016 hires start upgrading. It's just a cycle...

Latest from tha association on our August schedules.
MEC Communications Chairman
Commentary on the August Schedules
It’s no secret that the schedules system wide for August are atrocious. In my 9-year career spanning two airlines, eight domiciles, and four aircraft types, I have never seen the schedules actually get worse in the middle of the summer. To say this is unprecedented in the history of this airline is an understatement. Many pilots have been reaching out to the MEC and various volunteers with the same question that has been persistently echoed for the last 2 years.
“When will it get better?”
The truth is, we simply do not know. I will not lie to any one of you and say that next month will hopefully be an improvement. Normally, with the summer schedule coming to an end on August 21st, one would expect changes (for better or worse) as the slower fall schedule sets in, but with AAG requesting Envoy cover for other carriers and operate at full throttle continuously, I can only assume that the schedules will continue in present fashion into the foreseeable future.
