If I really wanted to be a millionaire, I'd do something totally different. Colgan, like most regionals are nothing more than a stepping stone for most pilots. Some people in this industry crack me up...
Agreed!!! MY cousin is totally using this as a stepping stone. He currently works for SWA out of DAL and knows many many people with connections. Hell he has lunch with Herb and Colleen a couple times a month! They even interviewed him as the job was posted internally first. Only thing that kept him from getting the job was total time and time in type.This is also why he doesn't want to burn this bridge and quit last minute. This is where Colgan comes in... Get it
