Default Anyone applying at Colgan??

I keep seeing ads on CT350 for FO Saab and Dash pilot classes. Are any of you folks applying? Just wondering...I haven't heard of anyone getting hired there yet amongst all the talk of adding planes.

They are continually interviewing. They have been taking guys out of each interview class.

They just announced 34 more upgrades. By years end I believe that will put the upgrades to around 70 for 2010. They will hire at least that many FOs if not more.

I had 1200 TT, 330 ME, instructor, and part-time ramp agent ( for another airline), however, I was probably about the lowest timer there. Out of 40 some interviewees, most were furloughed 121; Comair, Mesa, Lynx, Mesaba, DHL, also Netjets, among others.

Hi!

My buddy just interviewed. Mostly Lynx guys, and one guy from UPS.

I interviewed at DAL in 1991, and now I am trying to get a Colgan interview. Applied about a year ago, and updated...nothing...applied again.

Kind of what my feelings are (but I'm not leaving by any means), was in EWR the other week on my way to HNL and it was truly a sad spectacle to see Colgan busy at work lowering the bar at the end of the concourse past gate 108. I had hoped that pilots would have more respect for themselves, particularly if they're in a uniform "standing out" of the crowd... but they just don't.
