I doubt Colgan has it, but it is a throwback to the fact that BC is ex-EAL management during the strike and a notorious union buster. Have fun... Callsign is still Colgan... "say again callsign... Golden?? Culligan?" |
The fact that so few get the "Eastern" reference just goes to show you why a slim majority of Colgan pilots thought that they would never ever ever need a union.

It's only a matter of time before the rest of the Colgan's start leaving, well at least the FAs have some protection now. The more I think about it, Mesaba might be a good idea, I wouldn't even have to take pay cut, it would probably be a pay raise.

Hey mudpuppy, what are the chances of another union run for next year?? I'm a pro-union guy and would like to see if ALPA is planning another campaign.

Nice, 320 more days till the next petition. Maybe when we see the horrors of a Lorenzo airline come to reality coupled with a healthy dose of whipsaw more pilots will be willing to vote for representation.

People on the ALPA OC said the Colgan's would not be running the show much longer, and now our new President is an associate of Frank Lorenzo The company claimed nothing would change except the Q400.....another lie Gee I wonder which side was honest. It's a shame a 159 Colgan pilots couldn't educate themselves and see through the BS, now it's time to suffer our fate. If your a Colgan pilor and do not know who Frank Lorenzo is you will learn quick. and yeah, I agree our upgrade is so short right now and that makes staying here so tempting.............................. but I dunno I might really start sending out some apps...... |
