PSA info
#3863
In comparison to other places that I have flown, the Envoy 700's are about average. Compared to the PSA 700's, they are pieces of junk.
The Envoy 700's seem to always have significant problems, and lots of MEL's. They are bent, do not fly straight, require signifiant trimming, and are just worn in general. It is not uncommon to have 3-4 MEL's on one of those. In comparison, it is rare to have more than 1 MEL in a PSA airplane, and I have gone several trips with never flying a 700 or a 900 with any MEL's at all.
So, in comparison, the Envoy 700's are junk.
I do care what airplane I fly when it means more work. No one wants to see an airplane with the APU deferred, or the FMS in-op, or the only lav not working.

Question?....After the initial interview process how long would it be before a class date is scheduled. Also is it possible to have training complete and be working by the holidays? I personally would like to be finished by Thanksgiving. Thank you.

It depends on your circumstances. I talked with a guy recently that got a class date less than 2 weeks from interviewing. I would try to interview as fast as you can (we are interviewing on-site at job fairs) and tell them that you will accept the first class date. PSA is NOT filling classes, so you can probably get your choice.
