New crew base - DCA, confirmed-ish by Dion today. Official announcement in a couple weeks.
PSA is also confirmed to be accepting the additional 700's from Envoy, and Envoy will likely take additional Embraer airplanes. The announcement about the 700's that Envoy's MEC made are completely unfounded, according to Envoy and PSA management. The initial work on the transfers has already started, and PSA has leased additional hangar space support the 700's. Envoy is working now on ending their maintenance and training programs on the 700, and transferring people to another fleet and all parts/support to PSA.
Envoy will grow, as will PSA, as long as classes stay full.

A lot more east flying does not require an additional crew base, although it makes sense.

Sick calls in DCA require a base. There is no reason to fund a crew room, fly guys through there, take sick calls there, have mx there, and not make it a base.

Dion said that he can't make an announcement yet. But, he went out of his way to tell us without making it official that it will be DCA. He said that ORD is off of the table, and we are to expect increased flying at DCA and PHL.

DCA was a logical add. With Envoy in LGA and PDT in PHL and you guys in CLT the WOs are going to squeeze out everyone except RAH in the not too distant future from those bases.

So he officially said that the company would officially announce a new base and the official time frame to announce the official new base will officially happen in two weeks and but nothing if actually official right now.
