I think you guys are missing the point. The faa told colgan that the flight attendants still needed more training. Colgan refused to accept this and continued to work the flight attendants. They refused out of ignorance of how the faa works or because of a long standing callous disregard for safety when it endangers the bottom line. I understand it is slightly ridiculous but this isn't something colgan alone is getting picked on for. With a less then stellar safety record you are guaranteed to be under the microscope whether it is deserved or not. There is a good reason that most airlines have legal compliance positions. This is nothing to do with crews but everything to do with a safety culture that has been bought, merged, reviewed, changed, and is still changing.
