A good friend, '85 hire at Ozark (last class there) was in top 300 of TWA list. His adjusted DOH on the combined AA/TWA was 1997-ish. He flew as a Captain ONLY by staying in STL. Anywhere else--F/O, probably 75/76. Unless you consider being in the bottom half "high up the AA list", he isn't. I'm pretty sure a very small percentage of TWA guys are AA wide body captains.
