You know what? I have 6 years in at ASA, am 150-200 from upgrade (don't want to be too specific). If Compass or CommutAir started hiring street captains, I'd go! There's no hope for upgrade in 2013 at ASA.

Hey Spud, I just hired on at ASA and I'm almost 50 years old. If I stay I'll be nearly 60 before I upgrade and ASA may not even be around by then. It's all relative.

Damn 150-200?!? That is close haha.....5 years next month and I am 500+ away. I have pretty much accepted it isn't going to happen here. We are not going to need PIC time here soon anyway.

The last 5 years at Colgan would have got you a Saab 340 type, Dash 8 type, around 3,000 hours of precious 121 PIC and 4 years of captain pay. Compare that to someone who spent the last 5 years at any other regional and Colgan doesn't look so bad now does it?

And I would have had to commute, get a crash pad, and could not have worked my other 2 businesses, which would have cost me quite a bit of money, not to mention many days away from home. Good thing I didn't go to colgan.
