And for EVERYONES info, I believe we are going to become unionized within a year. What will your beef be with us then??? We had a heart breaking loss last summer with ALPA, I myself will do MORE this time to spread the word and support the next union drive.
Good to hear that you'll be pitching in for the next drive.
Colgan used to be a small family turboprop eas company. Now it's a 74 seat airline flying in/out of EWR regional.
Sure I haven't worked for Colgan, but the payrates alone that are published are enough to frustrate anyone that is having lines in their base taken away and given to pilots who want to work for less. (XJT EWR)
I'd rather wait for 4 "
strips" 
at a quality company and enjoy good mx and a good schedule.
