The only time you can give straight-up Colgan pilots the Q Captain is when they are below the quota. But they are above now. It's clear from how FS did it is that he filled IAH first, with no regards to quota filling, and then EWR second, and then started to fill EWR CA based on those Mesaba and Pinnacle pilots who had listed EWR CA as a bid choice. This is a wrong way of doing it, and it needs to be fixed!
