PSA announces PHL and ORF crew domiciles

@EDUC8-or Not a dick at all. You were fair and you even got a good laugh at my big dumb moment in the sim. I think the last time I saw you, you were DCA based. Or least that is where I saw you. Looks like the Bus or 737 in LGA or LAX for me. If I can think of any questions I will shoot you a message.
 
Can you fill up a 140 and take a jumpseater?

I've never worked for the Beagle, but my commute used to be plagued by 140s. In my experience the 140 could usually take me up front on a VFR day. A lot of the time I'd offer to count the number of gate checks going down the jet bridge so the gate agent could call ops early enough to get the weight restriction lifted. If the 140 is carrying alternate fuel you're going to be finding another way home.

Every Cherokee 140 I’ve flown has been underpowered so probably not.

The novelty of the red eyes wore off pretty quick. If I could get paid the same to fly the RJ and do that type of flying I would. One time zone is nice, and I like the small airports.
Well.....American Eagle does fly the 190 in PHL.

I know the used to not be able to, pretty much none of the E145 family could take 50 and a jump whenever there was an alternate. However, I know about 10 years ago most of the E145s got a weight mod that alleviated most of that problem, not sure if the desert rat 140s got it though.
 
True story one day some tower in the NE told us to follow the RJ...yep...it was one of our 190's. I could hear the rage from 100' away.

There was a (short) period of time, right after Republic got the 170s from MidTitanic where they were correcting ATC when they were called an RJ and saying they were a "TJ" or Transitional Jet.

Never heard TJ before. I do remember people getting upset if they were called an RJ.
 
Accidentally said "follow the RJ to the ramp" in response to ground at RDU the other week. Turns out it was a 190, and from their response you wouldv'e thought I sacrificed the guys first born.
I love doing that when I’m given instructions to follow a Delta 717, “Okay following the Delta RJ”. 60% of the time it gets a response every time.
