Ok, just saw on their site where you could upload a resume and cover letter. didn't know if I needed to do that or not. So I just skip that part of the online app? Also, is there another avenue to apply through online versus PSA's website? Thats the only place I knew about. Thanks

This is not correct.
The blended rate increases will never stop. The 89 aircraft thing refers to the raise we get for every "large RJ" that is added to PSA's operating certificate. The blended rate is separate and is a ratio of 200 vs 7/9. It will continue to increase for each 7/9 we get.

From Sec 3, A.2. (page 3-5)..."For every CRJ-705/900/EMB-175/MJ-90/SSJ-100/AN-158 aircraft added to the fleet in excess of 49 total aircraft, the rates of pay for that aircraft will be increased by 0.03% prior to calculating the blended pay rate. Upon reaching a fleet of eighty-nine (89) aircraft, no further increases will be made to that aircraft rate."
The way I read this is no more quarterly adjustments are made to basic pay rates based upon delivery of airplane #90. Those deliveries up to #89 require the quarterly pay adjustments.

It is kind of funny that people on the interwebz keep "threatening" PSA pilots by saying that the 200's are going to leave. Sure, there would be a few less captain slots, but pay would go up with the fleet type change. And if they did leave, we would probably get more 700's and 900's.

As has been explained to me, the leases on the 200s were signed when fuel prices were high, thus the lessor had to set the rates pretty low. First lease expires in 2018, and there are more and more 200s in fresh paint out there.
That said, apparently it's pretty expensive to make them ADS-B compliant which is required by 2020.
When it's all said and done, we really won't know how those 200s will effect seniority until we know more about the upcoming "flow" negoiations and get a better idea what attrition is like going forward.

I'm glad we could have a couple pages worth of discussion on such a simple topic just to decide that my original post was correct.
It goes to show what the quality of information is on a site like this.
Tread carefully.
