N546FF

N546FF was originally delivered to American Eagle on April 20, 2011. On April 15, 2014, the Bombardier CRJ-702 was transferred to Envoy Air, the American Airlines subsidiary that was formerly American Eagle. On May 30, 2015, the aircraft was transferred to PSA Airlines, a wholly owned subsidiary of American Airlines.

An incident occurred on October 14, 2014 when the plane was operated by Envoy. On a flight from Midland, Texas to Dallas Ft. Worth, the crew received an indication of an overheated outboard brake on the left outboard main wheel. The flight was diverted to Abilene, Texas. N546FF landed safely and the overheat indication was proved to be false.
