you guys seem excited..........................wonder how long that will last Congrats and Good luck

 

Yeah bro, Ill be in Va on fri! See you there, Ill be the one from Boston! Barooski take your misery and bury it somewhere else... I think you made your point clear about how you feel about Colgan... I guess there's one in every crowd.

 

Look, I believe Saab had it the worst at Colgan. I mean he must have been put through **** by them to hate it as much as he did/does.

I believe if Saab could kill Bin Laden or Colgan he would choose the latter.

Now me, I have never done a Part 91 flight. I overnight 2 nights on my 4 day trip, I average 97 credit hours a month and am having no trouble living on 1st year pay. Upgrade time may go down just simply because of the Q400.

In my opinion, Colgan isn't bad and it isn't great amazing. It's good so far. The 340 is amazing and the crews are a blast to fly with.

Don't listen to Saab, his story (although I'm sure it's true) is just one sided. If you come here expecting them to treat you like royalty, it isn't going to happen. You work for them and if your paycheck doesn't bounce be prepared to roll with the punches.

We're growing and things are looking good, we need to keep expanding the Saab route if Pinnacle wants us to keep getting bigger. I expect most new hires after August to go straight to the Q400...but we'll see.

By the way Alex, did anyone get hired into the 1900? And what were your times?

 

i really hope he listens to that sound advice, i think everyone is sick and tired of hearing him whine

 

bro I could start an airline with alll of the people that left there unhappy, you'll see

 

722 TT 100.1 Multi, most of it hard time CFIing out of a small airport South of Boston.... And yeah im stoked, flying in the soup in New England for rat $hit doesnt phase me, flyings in my blood no matter how much I get paid! I had an office job and would fly for peanuts the rest of my life if it means that I don't have to work under florescent lighting!

 

I'll see you guys there on the 9th as well.

 

what airport did you teach out of?

 

Super attitude there boss This ignorant niave comment is exactly why COLGAN treats their pilots the way they do, No wonder Colgan hired you, have fun being abused, but I guess thats the same attitude most starry-eyed 700hr CFI's have

 

Ignorant??? I think the word you are looking for is arrogant... Ignorance comes by the ways of those who are less educated, perhaps in the form of those who do not use the english language properly... hmmmm..
