Seeing as though you're an XJT FO, means to me you didn't vote either. You're one of these kids who goes to an RJ-regional, falls into a union job, and then thinks he has the right to lecture non-union pilots.
So stop- you won't let anyone slide. Your opinion means nothing. What you should be doing is educating those pilots on the benefits of ALPA, not saying "Colgan sucks, Pay is bad, Colgan sucks".
I've been around awhile, ExpressJets pre-2000 rates were pitiful, too.
your words hold no weight to me. if you are a CAL pilot you would be entirely against Colgan replacing XJT at EWR. That flying is CAL's and should only go back to CAL. You forget XJT was part of CAL so it is completely different with the flying going to them.
As for working at Colgan, I have no sympathy for people that go there. I could've gotten a job there long before XJT, but I only wanted to go to respectable operation.
As a supposed CAL pilot you don't come close to sounding like one.
