I think it will be around for a while. IT would be really expensive to change at this point. The colgans have shown that it can work with this size operation. I'd expect to see some consolidation though like at pit ie moving jamestown,johnstown and cmh all based out of pit with the new wv flying. I just don't see them changing up the schedules and paying for hotels when most people live in base at this point. My .02

I think they might be doing away with it, dont know why they think they have this great idea that noone has caught on to yet, i mean if it saves soo much money why doesnt anyone else do it? yeah you save on hotels and stuff but you prob end up paying more in repoing planes for mx or other reasons which i'm sure adds up

Two completely different answers. Maybe we should ask it in a CC next time.

Any other CJC'ers?

my best time was the night before ioe and i check in the hotel and there was no reservation and theni called and scheduling made one and i get to my room and get a call the credit card was bad...it took me two months to get credit for it...colgan...bastards...i got paid my overguarantee from june and july 06 last week...YAY...

ummm outstations...are colgans pride and joy they will not go away...that keeps them from paying you 5 to 8 dollars of per diem...my first year salary that i took home at colgan was 12,600...food stamps baby...and what sucks is being on the 1900 you don't get pretzels and drinks...

don't try to take them out of the cabinets at the hangar you will get fired
