I just hope that if this is indeed an AWAC order, the flying is for someone else because frankly I'm sick of the AA product.
Yeah I remember that as well. I believe those were the PSA -900s. What is interesting now is I can't imagine they would
order any additional airframes for PSA or any WO. The bonuses and flow are hardly attracting anyone to PSA and it sounds like the remaining -900s, and for sure the Envoy 700s, won't be arriving as scheduled.
I am as well. Billyho said he could find you a pilot at any regional that is sick of their mainline partner, I'm sure he can, but I gotta think for any of the AA RJ guys It's pretty sad. In comparison, yesterday I came home from LGA-DSM in First. It was a Endeavor -900. The service was amazing. I was asked what I wanted for dinner. I couldn't believe I was being asked this on an RJ. Wild Salmon on rice or some kind of fancy salad. I charged my phone and iPad during the flight home. It was amazing. Delta actually cares, a lot, about the quality of their regional feed and being just like mainline on the inside. United is heading in that direction, especially with the 170/175s. AA?
As for ADS-B yes last month or so one of the In Touch emails talked about how they were to begin installing them soon.
