hahah true, I ran into an old CA I used to fly with in PIT the other day (Good Guy), he said je was going to fly it, he said it could out climb a 737 though, not sure what he meant by that, I dont think the Q can get a climb rate of a 737, maybe a decent one down low but at altitude......................................???

Where are they planning to put these new orders? Anybody heard? The first 15 are to go to EWR we know that much.

The bid closes on the 29th for the first 56 CA and 56 F/O slots; after nobody puts those bids in because they haven't looked at the old Colgan Crew website, and after Mgmt stops scratching their heads wondering why, they will hire into the Q! Just my thoughts - BCD

yeah, its like options for 10 more and conditionals on 20 more. Sounds like IAH will maybe see 10, and if they work out maybe more in the future. Pure speculation here
