“This transfer is solely driven by forecasts showing an insufficient number of pilots at Envoy in 2015 to operate our planned schedule. Envoy continues to provide reliable service, its employees serve our customers well, and the company remains an important part of American Airlines Group,” Hashimoto said in his letter.
The transfer will begin in March of 2015 with two aircraft a month being transferred to Trans States Airlines and the other, unnamed carrier. The other twenty will begin moving to Piedmont in 2016.
In mid-2015, American will begin sending Envoy’s fleet of forty-seven CRJ-700s to PSA Airlines at the rate of two per month.
ATP has partnered with all three of these airlines to send the best-trained pilots entering the regional airline industry today, the graduates of ATP's Airline Career Pilot Program who have gone on to instruct for ATP before going to the airlines.
