About the Colgan wind-down, this was probably done to prevent guys being awarded the Qs just a month before it disappears anyway! That last award had way too many pilots going to training for an aircraft that was gone in less than two months. That is an utter waste of money, and no company in their right mind should have done that.
I agree- the "owned" image is retarded.
And secondly- Why would United ask Colgan to end it sooner? It's not the case. PNCL didn't want to spend $2 million training guys for the Q. I think Spanjers isn't being honest. Just say- Its pointless to spend money to train guys who won't even make it to the line. We will respect that. But don't feed us BS about United asked us to conclude our flying sooner. That makes no sense and puts pressure on RAH to get up to speed. Unless the rates United pays Colgan are significantly higher than what RAH has bid.
