Today's class was 6 PHL 190 and 6 PHL AB. Most of the 190 slots went senior.

Chief pilot recently told me that the Airways hiring process will be over in 1.5 months and all hiring will be though the American hiring system (then assigned to the different airlines (East, West or AA) until SOC in Spring 2015.

So, it looks like another US window won't open. Was the last window to open last September?

He said signs are pointing to American's interview process.

Anyone know if they've started pulling apps from the Sept window or are they still pulling from May?

Word I got is the trainers contract on the US side makes it difficult to move most of new hire training to DFW. Or else it would have happened already.

I've got friends applying to AA/US...I've been asked if the 1st year pay of $40/hour is going to increase in the future. I've seen the other pay rates from the MOU but no mention of first year pay. Anyone heard anything? DL and UA pay over $60/hour and I can understand some guys worrying over finances that first year.

Still from the May window. They pulled around 500 or so apps from that window to be called. Wonder when they run out and pull from the Sept '13 window?

Any idea if AA will use apps from the Sept '13 US window?
