Agreed. I can identify wisdom and rational thought interspersed between the many hostile and inflammatory exchanges between you and the main PSA usual suspects here. Why do you let people rile you up to the point that PSA becomes like your personal kryptonite?

You guys are hilarious.
The FAA set the standard for a pilot to be an FO or a Captain, you either meet those standards or not. If you do, you are fully qualified to fly the airplane as a crew. What the hell are you guys trying to pull off here?
There is a whole pile of airports that are considered Special Qualification airports besides Aspen for any airline. Aspen is but 1 of ~50 or so at PSA in the FOM. Special use airports are dealt with appropriately at all 121 airlines.
PSA takes the last of the 900s this month from the first order. We also take delivery of the first Envoy 700 this month. Followed by 3 700's per month till October when the new batch of 900's start up. After the new batch of 24? 900s at three per month finish, then back to the 700's.
Hey maybe we get them all maybe we don't, but the 700s are starting this month.
If you are going to troll here, at least know what the hell you are talking about.

Perhaps, I've never operated it obviously so I have no idea. I was just throwing a number out. You know the company is going to push for the lowest possible.

This whole ASE thing is a non issue. If PSA starts flying ASE (and that's a big IF) they'll probably handle it similar to SkyWest: specially trained crews that have been back through ground and sim training specific to ASE.
No doubt they'll be pretty experienced Captains.

Any PSA recruiter care to comment on a possible ASE program. Word on the line is envoy will keep the 700's, they are the only AAG regional with an approved ASE training program and engineering data (SKW does, but UA has a termination clause that restricts SKW from providing feed for any carrier outside UA)... PSA POI stated PSA will not be approved for ASE flying due to relative inexperience of crews. Any validity to this?

Actually the E-Jet has very poor numbers for ASE. That's one of the reasons why RAH wasn't able to kill off the Q400 operation when they acquired Frontier/Lynx. The 190 couldn't do it (wingspan) and the 170 couldn't do it (performance).
