AAG wants them over at PSA ASAP. But PSA is throttling the transfers and AAG is slowly getting more annoyed from what I've heard via union all calls and MX guys.

Thanks for the insight. My class date is this summer. Got my eyes on the 700 (already CL-65 typed) ORD is an easy commute for me.

Not a troll post. Envoy is getting additional airplanes and the CRJ pilots will go on to the new aircraft. PSA has had full classes for a couple months and has more than enough pilots.

Btw if you want rumors, I've heard from several reliable sources a very different story from what you posit. I've also heard from separate reliable sources that your information is accurate. Seems like no one knows what's really going on, eh?

Maybe that’s us, maybe it’s not. Last I checked, the pilots at Envoy don’t sit in on fleet planning meetings, so how would you know anyways. All I’m saying is we are more likely to open probably 5other bases before we go opening LA.

On the transfer we've heard AAG wants 2/3 a month starting in Jan. However, our Prez wants to keep it at 1 a month. So I'm curious on who will win out. AAG or PSA
