CRJ200 comes for a return to American

Brody_Swiatek · August 10, 2021, 2:29pm

As you know American no longer operates this aircraft type. But today is a special day, due to recent hit to Airlines including American. There will be 2 CRJ200 flights operated by Skywest from PHX to FLG! If you spot at either this is something to get as PHX hasn’t seen one other than Private since American stopped operating them.

How I found out about this…I was on Instagram and saw a post about this. I got exited but of course thought it was a glitch. No! It was not! I don’t think this has ever happened in the US. An airline using an Aircraft they stoped using.

Definitely didn’t think that would happen

Brody_Swiatek · August 10, 2021, 2:31pm

I’m not lying, it’s on a CRJ200 today.

Ethan_Lee1 · August 10, 2021, 2:32pm

Idk how to feel tbh

Brody_Swiatek · August 10, 2021, 2:32pm

Just wait till it’s flying on FR24.

Great, so the Crappy Regional Jet makes a return to AA…

Brody_Swiatek · August 10, 2021, 2:35pm

Not permanent, jus a few flights and then it’s Gone again.

Aviation108 · August 10, 2021, 2:41pm

and there we were, rejoicing, only for it to come back

Brody_Swiatek · August 10, 2021, 2:43pm

And it just landed. Still don’t believe me.

Infinite_Ec · August 10, 2021, 3:00pm

This is unreal. I feel like everything right now.
But yes I do believe that its back…

sad noises…

Brody_Swiatek · August 10, 2021, 3:09pm

Second flight departs soon

Brody_Swiatek · August 10, 2021, 3:20pm

Second CRJ200 just took off

MIGUEL_ORIGEL_SOBERO · August 10, 2021, 3:30pm

Im sure nobody wanted the crappy regional jet back for AA but ok

ToasterStroodie · August 10, 2021, 5:37pm

Not really a return, but more of a substitute. Skywest has one active CRJ200 on standby to stand in as a replacement aircraft should it be needed for American Eagle, which is why us American Eagle ground handlers are still trained on how to work the aircraft.

It makes an appearance every rare once in a while.

Still better than their Airbus A319/320

MIGUEL_ORIGEL_SOBERO · August 10, 2021, 5:57pm

I cant say i agree

Butter_Boi · August 10, 2021, 6:09pm

Aye, it’s back!

Welcome back to AA my friend, if only for a short time.

DeltaFox · August 10, 2021, 6:43pm

might have to get back on IF to do this flight while I got a chance for this since I got no CRJ’s in MFS

RyMan · August 10, 2021, 6:46pm

No way this IS AWESOME!

Brody_Swiatek · August 10, 2021, 11:07pm

Ok, that’s the my breaking 🤬
