The resurgance of turboprops on short range regional flight is due to fuel costs. Colgan was purchased with the intention to be used as a turboprop operator.

The author of this post would like to make it seem as though Colgan Pilots are "taking" flying away from CAL pilots, and therefore hurting the mainline pilots. Last I checked most of the routes being flown by Colgan were previously flown by Expressjet. So by the author's rationale, up until this point Expressjet was "taking" flying away from CAL.
Both statements are completely idiotic, and I think the first respond to this post was best, you picked the wrong place to complain.

In the end of the day, all the flying done at the regional level is dictated by what the mainline carriers decide.
