SkyWest will likely cover Aspen, like they are doing in Chicago. PSA will be an all CRJ fleet and Envoy will be an all Embraer fleet.

Fleet plan is still intact from AAG that PSA will have 150 airplanes by late 2018. If staffing isn't an issue, it will likely grow to 200 airplanes by 2020.

There are still 10 regionals providing lift for AAG, but that number will decrease by at least 3 or 4 in the next 5 years, and the WO will all grow and take on the additional flying as needed.
Ok well until Skywest can get signed off on Aspen then Envoy will keep some of the CRJs.

SkyWest already does Aspen do they not?

And you keep assuming PSA is going to fly those CRJs to the same places. It is my understanding that most of them will be going to DCA. SkyWest will do the AAG CRJ flying out of ORD and basically just be augmented by PSA.

You do realize that Skywest flies to Aspen every day already, correct? They have been for quite some time.

They fly CRJ 700s there several times a day, but it just has a different livery painted on the side.

Well then that settles it.

Just curious but does PSA do lost weekends or CDOs/split duty?

I don't know what a lost weekend is, but there are a few CDOs here and there. They used to go senior before 117 when you could actually get paid for them, now they typically go to reserves or they go critical or guys will take a jr man assignment to get paid for them.

Interesting our CDOs go super senior.

"Lost day" trips are where you do a late flight in to an out station On day 1 and do the first flight out on day three while sitting at the hotel the whole day on day three.

Lost weekend would be last flight in on Friday followed by the first flight out on Monday with the entire weekend at the hotel.

CDOs don't go senior here because of min-day carveouts... once one of the days go critical the carveout goes away and all of a sudden the trip becomes desirable with a min day of 4 and 1.5 rate.

We have a few trips that skip a day of flying as you describe... seldom but they do occur.

Are you being serious? I've heard of that for a freight company but not a regional.

I've seen them a few times at PSA

I did one in SYR last year (32 hours) and saw another 32 hour MYR "lost weekend" in opentime a few months ago.
