I was on the first revenue flight for N91007, and the answer is no. Also, 3 of the screens in Polaris cabin were inoperable. On a brand-new plane.

N153GJ left YUL after an overnight, its been flying back since the 2nd.... Looking at the seatmap, as well as the live ATC it still appears to be a traditional CRJ-700.

Possible this was not supposed to be the 1st modification to the 550?

If it was only in YUL for an overnight, no way it was a 550 mod. I expect the first ship will take a couple of months to retrofit, test and certify before returning to service.

Apologies, I haven't been monitoring this thread for very long. How long have the Polaris mods at HKG historically taken for the ex-CO 772s? I note that there are a couple there now, and one is coming up on 8 weeks in the hangar.

Ha! I was on N91007 last week EWR-SFO and the GA announced that there were *five* screens down in Polaris with no hope of being fixed before the flight. Once aboard, my PP seat refused to recline at all. Just what do those people tasked with new metal induction at IAD do?

UAX Update

E175:
Correction to my earlier post, first 2 E175SC to enter revenue service was N602UX and N603UX (13Jun)
N601UX and N604UX still just “delivered” but not yet in service

CR7:
N153GJ entered STL 7Jun for CR5 conversion
N154GJ entered STL 11Jun for CR5 conversion
N163GJ entered AMA 12Jun for paint (new livery)
