Looks like AMR is putting finances ahead of job preservation if this goes through.

If I were in the bottom 200 there and knew the remaining workforce was going to get increased hours out of it I would probably be a little disappointed, though it will save AA more money instead of reducing the average line value and holding onto people.

There will be pilots there who have been furloughed or on reserve for more than a decade.
