Row 9 is 5 abreast at rear of cabin.
The -300 series which seat 50 will remain in service for the time being for CLT flights.
A tough, reliable airplane which performed for years at Henson/Piedmont for PI, US and now AA.
The ERJ-145 is a major upgrade for Piedmont, and the proud employees of this great regional airline.
Best Wishes and safe travels in the future for the "bird" and its employees.

I thought PSA was going to all all 700 and 900's.

I believe there will still be a smattering left post-Air Wisconsin operating with PSA and some of the non-wholly-owned carriers, but to be sure, AA is clearly moving rapidly and deliberately towards fewer single-class regional aircraft, and all of them being ERJs. I've said many times - my personal expectation is that, within a few years, AA's entire single-class fleet will consist entirely of the 118 ex-Envoy ERJ145s, distributed approximately evenly between DFW, ORD, PHL and CLT, with some flowing through (but not based in) a few other hubs. I see AA eventually moving to nearly or fully 2-class at LGA and DCA to mirror what has already happened at LAX and (for the most part) PHX, and in general the rest of AA's network being operated with 2-class RJs or mainline.

How so? It's loud and so short. It's like 6 rows.
