PSA adding 14 CRJ-900NGs to fleet:
 

PSA is adding 14 CRJ900NG (NextGen) aircraft to our fleet!  The addition of these 14 aircraft further highlights our continued growth and significance to American’s network and the American Eagle portfolio.

“PSA is on a well-planned growth trajectory that involves more team members flying more aircraft and customers as we continue to expand and enhance our operation. This year, we fully restored staffing, resurrected all our parked aircraft and inducted the last of the seven aircraft as part of a previous agreement. Now, we’re prepared for the next phase of growth with the addition of these 14 NextGen CRJ900s.”  -PSA President and CEO, Dion Flannery

Wonder where those tails are coming from?

Probably Mesa.....

hiring
 

Does that translate to increase in pilot hiring??

I’ve heard they are fat on FO’s atm

Planes are from Europe. The first one is on property and beginning the induction process. Paint, heavy maint visit, install the AA cabin configuration, etc. There is a lot to do.

Yes. Plus PSA flow to AA resuming in January and anticipated attrition once hiring at other majors picks up again. New hire class sizes have already increased. A lot of it comes down to the ripple effect of the 737 production bottleneck on the whole industry.

Where are the planes going to be based? I’ve heard mixed reviews of DFW CLT and PHL

Any updates on how these deliveries are coming? It looks like they should start coming on line soon from what I can find on the internet, but it would be nice to hear from someone on the inside. These should bring the fleet total up to 154 planes.

PSA confirms in a linkedin post from their CEO that they are putting the first one online in July, and have four more almost ready to go. I think the interior looks pretty sharp!

700s from ENY for a pay cut.
