A conversation with a current Colgan pilot who can answer questions candidly and explain things (no growth, no upgrade, not worth the sacrifice to work there), is much more useful than some self righteous jerk looking to elevate his self image by putting others down. However, were I a Colgan pilot, I would be hesitant to post for fear of endless flaming. If the information seeker does not know any Colgan pilots, the flamers have shut down what may be a one of the few resources a young pilot has for seeking useful information. I'm not in defense of poorly operated airlines, just the poor guys looking for work.
