Are people actually excited about this with all the negative media attention that Colgan is receiving? Go down the street and find a different $13,000 a year job. Some people just don't learn.

I won't believe that Colgan is upgrading people tell I see the class. The whole training department has just been fired or told to leave. So with everybody gone, how are they going to hire or upgrade? Don't get all your hopes up over some email, because Bill and everyone else says not tell the end of the year at the earliest.

Well they're just getting rid of the few (very few..) pro-pilot people we had in the dept... it's really a shame.
now we are left with some new dude from pinnacle which coming over from that side i would expect nothing more than Buddy-caliber.
the training itself is done by sim instructors and check airmen most of whom haven't been fired yet (lol..?) so that shouldn't be a problem logistically.
but yeah I agree with you, it's entirely annoying when people talk about upgrade constantly, and it's always the junior ones... the more senior guys have been resigned to their fate a long time ago.

In spite of all the experts out there on this, it's going down. At the same time, it's always good to believe none of what you hear and half of what you see!

Not to derail the thread regarding positive movement at a company but......

I figured the first time you used tell it was a typo. Then it came a second time.....so must not be.

It's not tell.....it's 'til...as in until.
