I have a gut feeling, since they only have about 300 pilots at Colgan, that its the other way around, they can find the perfect people that will fit into their small crew, I do not think the sim ride is actually all that passable, I think its just the filter.

I don't think they should be holding the applicants to practically ATP standards at that stage of the game, especially with so many people coming in from backgrounds of mostly CFIing in seminoles and the like. But that's just my opinion.
