Are you serious man? First, how is Pinnacle Corp going to find another carrier to fly the Q's? Do you think they will just say "hey ASA you want some Q's to fly for us.?"

Second you sound like the media when you say the FAA is questioning Colgan's ability to fly the Q. They were the brainchildren who approved the training in the first place and signed it off. The FAA is just like everyone else right now and is in butt saving mode for the public. The FAA is influenced by lobbyists from places like the RAA, it is all a game with them.

So have you asked the pilots you are flying with why Comair did not go out of business when they had the accident in Lexington? Afterall, they took of the wrong runway, it does not get more F'd up than that.

Step back and look at this from a business standpoint, not a reactive media standpoint. In no time people will have moved on from this crash as they did with Comair almost 3 years ago. I would guess a name change for Colgan and the eventual merger with the Pncl pilots in the future...all great things for both groups.

Im done with the Colgan name anyway, the Colgan's are gone so lets move on and this is the perferct opportunity to do that.

And as far as the guy who mentioned AirTran...100% correct. That was a branded outfit who changed their name after a horrible accident and look at AirTran now, passengers have no idea of who Valuejet is or was.
