I don’t know what routine they use for delivery flights, but is it possible some extra equipment is installed for those long range delivery flights then removed during conformity?

Possible, but those flights aren’t 121, so different regs.

More likely explanation is that they are removed during conformance and kept in ABI until they are needed.

Its looking like this entire thing was a non-issue. As many have said, Envoy doesn't have nor want any over water operation operations. It is, in my point of view, not worth the hassle for the company. The company would be much better served using existing fleet and future fleet to expand west to eat away at Skywests main market.

Envoy doesn’t decide what Envoy does. Neither does AAG. Republic and Skywest do. What they don’t want or can’t do for a month, that’s what winds up in our bid packet. See: DFW-CLL.

We do seem to be able to bully Piedmont to some extent though. As an eternally junior FO, all I fly is former Piedmont pairings.

That’s was tongue in cheek, right?

ETOPS and EOW are two different animals.

It came from a DECS code. Probably just a place holder till delivery. JDM*tailnumber
