You are correct 1647 is the correct number. Apparently there was an updated list that came out after I imported the one I had.

The story is we're opening ORF as a maintenance base.
The chatter/speculation is that a crew base there may follow.
With PSA's growth plan (and so far, ability to continue building) we are likely to add additional crew base(s). If we're picking up Air Wisconsin's flying, it makes sense that those bases would mimic the Air Whisky bases being replaced (PHL and ORF, for example).
It seems to me that ORF probably has a good supply of Regional Jet Pilots, many who could be persuaded to jump to PSA if the rewards are good enough.

There are a healthy supply of military folks who aren't able to get on with the majors that will come onboard if ORF opens as a crew base. A lot of folks I know from this region (prior military) went to AWAC for that base alone. It's one of the reasons why I considered AWAC strongly for quite some time until they announced they were closing the base forcing me to look into my commuting options.

That was a mistake, as discussed elsewhere. It somehow got listed as a crew base instead of a maintenance base when the profile was updated.

I don’t think opening ORF has much to do with attracting Whiskey pilots...
