Encyclopedia : P : PS : PSA : PSA Airlines


PSA Airlines is a regional airline based in Dayton, Ohio that flies under US Airways Express for US Airways. PSA is wholly owned by US Airways Group. PSA has crew bases in Knoxville, Tennessee, Charlotte, North Carolina and Dayton, Ohio. In addition to flying commuter aircraft for US Airways, PSA operates several ground stations on their behalf in the eastern United States, including the express operation in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

History

PSA began as Vee Neal Airlines which was renamed to Jetstream International Airlines (JIA) in December, 1983. On November 1, 1995 USAir renamed the recently acquired JIA to PSA in order to protect the trademark of Pacific Southwest Airlines, which was once a large carrier on the West Coast that USAir had acquired. Since the acquistion by US Airways, PSA has transitioned from a fleet of turboprop aircraft to an all-jet fleet.
