N716PS

This airframe, registered as N716PS, is a 2004-built Bombardier CRJ-701ER (CL-600-2C10) with manufacturer serial number 10171. It is owned by PSA Airlines (operated for American Eagle / American Airlines Group), a corporate operator based in Dayton, OH, US, and has been operated in American Eagle service throughout its career. The aircraft carries a US registration and has undergone an in-service cabin modification that is recorded in service history. Condition and valuation notes are not published for this specific airframe in the provided data set.

The aircraft is configured with a two-class cabin denoted C9Y56 (9 business/first and 56 economy, totaling 65 seats), and the service history notes it was reconfigured from Y70 during its operational life. Avionics are fitted with the Rockwell Collins ProLine suite, a common installation among CRJ-700 series operators, providing standard regional-jet navigation, communication, and flight-management capabilities. In its role with PSA Airlines for American Eagle, this CRJ-701ER typically serves short- to medium-haul regional routes feeding mainline hubs, operating from the owner’s Dayton, Ohio base as part of an integrated regional network. Maintenance considerations for this airframe align with CF34-powered regional jets, emphasizing engine shop visits, LRUs commonality across the CRJ family, and adherence to operator-directed maintenance programs.

The Bombardier CRJ-701ER occupies the regional jet niche for 60–75 seat high-frequency trunk routes, offering extended-range capabilities relative to earlier CRJ models, as indicated by the 1,434 nm range and 41,000 ft ceiling. It competes with stretched regional types and smaller mainline narrowbodies in capacity and trip cost, and attracts buyers seeking fleet commonality within CRJ families. Resale and maintenance considerations hinge on CF34 engine support, avionics upgrades such as ProLine modernization, and cabin reconfiguration history (as with this airframe’s move from Y70 to C9Y56), which can affect marketability to other regional operators.
