A friend told me he heard in a meeting in MSP today: SJS will be coming to this company next year. Seems the initials were RE or something like that?

Outstation basing hasn't hurt PSA, PDT, or RAH. I doubt it would be large, and for some stations RDU is an easier commute than NYC (weather) or ATL (loads). It's not our job as pilots to care about recruiting. Any dips in hiring means more offered to us.

I've come across more pilots working for us that live around RDU than any other outstation, except for MEM.

Right! Also, I've talked to people who just want southern bases and will move. I know a bunch of guys that moved to CLT because it was a southern City they could hold at PSA. I suspect people would move to Raleigh for this base, much much lower COL and it's super easy to non-rev out of.

Fwiw I really think it was G7. If you look closely it appears the main gear doors have been removed. Like half of their 900 fleet operates without them for some reason.

Thanks! I'll look into it.

I was told it's cheaper to remove them and take the CDL penalty than maintain them.

Ill give it to you right now. 22 CRJ700s coming our way.

Weighing in late; and obviously I could end up eating my hat -if I wore one :-) but I'd be surprised after all the work we've been doing the last few years to align with mainline if we opened a base outside of their footprint.
SLC is the obvious one if we get more Western flying, but otherwise it seems unnecessary. We're not hurting on the recruiting side; ATL is building up and the 2 class flying becoming our mainstay.
It's no secret in the CTower they want (and expect) a fleet of 700s and are very keen on the 175.
I'm hoping for an announcement on the non rev priority and travel partner any day now; perhaps thats what they're referring to....

Well certainly anything is possible. I used the DC Portal to look up write ups and tail numbers into RDU on March 2. Also, it is possible that other things may have caused ventral fin damage on both sides and paint missing. It’s possible.
