Keep telling yourself that Kilo oh and by the way we are losing like 20 a month to CAL alone . Kilo I felt the sameway you did. Slowly (you have not been there long enough) The MEL'd airplanes the crew schedulers hacking up your schedule, the not getting paid even after you fill out your stupid paysheets and the flying in and out of the the same airports gets really really old. I know you are excited becuase this is ytour first airline job, but believe me, you too will get sick of the way Colgan runs their operation. Have you had the oppertunity to talk to Tom Brink and have him ask you if what the Captain wrote up was "really" broken? Look 8 legs a day is great and flying "through" the weather is alot of fun and builds some great experience, but when you have recruiters from Airtran, aka Valuejet tell you that unless you have Turbojet time and have delt with complex systems, FMS's and been to more than a few places they really are not interested in Turbo-prop guys, sorry but its a fact. Next time you go fly ask Your Captain who probably has more than 1,000PIC and has his app out everywhere why he is still there? Have fun in 252CJ, last time I flew it, it had 9 MEL's
