I disagree...it was a solid reporting for an attack but MOST definitely wasn't objective.

NO mention of regional safety over the years. (i.e. how man crashes per carrier) (not 1 single mention of safety over the years, except for the mention of the last 6 crashes were regionals over the past 8 years.)(slight bias for their argument)

NO mention of training practices for any regional (only a small bit on the Cpt. Renslow)

NO mention about other regionals practices (besides Colgan)

NO current pilot interviews (even if identity was hidden)

NO mention of how a lot of pilots that aren't at regionals anymore got their start there and are on mainline now or something differen't

It proves that Cohen and Continental's CEO is an idiot and at least made me think they aren't pilots (not sure if they are or not).

ULTIMATELY it didn't tell me anything that I didn't know before,

There were good things though:

IT did bring to light how the relationship between mainline and the regionals.

IT did bring to light duty/rest days as pilots and how much they actually work in a given day.

IT did bring to light the low pay.

IT did bring to light that its ultimately the FAA that is big brother but does a crappy job at it (at times)

P.S. where are the former colgan pilots now, anyone know? out of the three that interviewed, mainly the 2 they talked to the most.

This has changed my view of the regionals (very little) but I thought it was a sub-par report
