The Colgan incident is the exception, not the rule. As you know better than most, at ASA, many pilots are more experienced than many at the majors. We have a great safety record...better than some majors. I have had more than one former ASA pilot tell me that the ASA training department is better than what they experience at the majors...including Delta and Southwest.
Mutual respect as equals is the first step...
Joe, as you know that is a two way street.
I could get in to the difference of training and the different needs, but yes, ASA is a top notch operation, no doubt about that.
