Yeah I saw the hotel thing was finally put into effect by the very last day they said they'd have it done by. It's interesting how effective immediately means 2 months later. I guess it's no surprise since it's brought to you by the same guys who said AQP would be in place by summer of last year.

Very unlikely but for what its worth Kernan said its still on a list of possibles. Its not a bad drive from Nashville to Knoxville. There are quite a few pilots who do it. You can shave 45 minutes off the drive it you just live in Lebanon TN.

Initial IOE is 25 hours in your primary aircraft type (generally 700/900) then 10 hours of differences in the 200. All IOE is conducted with a check airman who will train you in line operations. For initial IOE you are still considered home-based so they will dead head you from where you live to wherever your trips will start/finish.

Anyway, I think it would be easier for PSA to park and/or transfer our 200s to AWAC than it would be to transfer the Envoy 700s to anyone but PSA. And AAG wants Envoy flying more 175s. Parking/transferring 145s to Piedmont and getting the 700s to an operator with a single type certificate would ultimately save AAG tens of millions.

That is the most likely option at this point I think. While we are approved for flying all 3 series of CRJ, that doesn't mean the FAA particularly likes it. And if some of our recent FOQA data is anything to go by, I'd say they may be getting nervous. Not trying to spread any false rumors, but damn, some people don't know how to fly a got damn airplane and it's scary hearing about some of that stuff. Really makes you scratch your head and wonder, "how in the actual hell did they get themselves in that position"?
