Saab---chillax man....nothing you can do. Colgan will continue to staff their aircraft and fly their routes. They are doing routes that I'm sure you'd rather not do... their Q-400/SF-340 isn't going YYZ-IAH like your ERJ, nor is it doing a redeye from LAX-IAH.

Likewise.... some mainline guy can probably say the same for XJT. "Damn XJT flying OUR ROUTES with JETS for LESS MONEY." Its all relative bro. I know I don't like flying PHL-BWI-PHL-DCA-PIT. That is not the type of day I enjoy... I'd love if Colgan "grew" a little on those routes... we're doing it in a CRJ-200. Be thankful for what you have man.



You get paid to do a job, you're going to upgrade, and most likely move on. Most of us have the same goals---make $$$, fly a little, enjoy life. How we all get there is up to us.
