Upgrades at Colgan
 
Yes, I know they are hiring street captains because they dont have enough FOs ready to upgrade. So, I was wondering what are the mins for upgrade?

As long as we are on it, how many months for upgrades?

usmc-sgt 10-07-2007 01:58 AM

i cant speak for the whole fleet but I have a friend on the SF and he was saying around 12 months IF (there is always an IF) you go in with around 1000 hours because you need somewhere around 2200 tt I think it was so if you get hired with 400 you can not upgrade regardless of seniority.

I can not speak for the 1900 but I have heard around 6-8 months but like I said, heard it not very reliable information

upgrades on the Q are 3200tt and I believe waiverable to 2700

there are a few colgan guys on this board so they can fill in the gaps

1000 in type and an ATP of course on the SAAB. I don't know about the other equipment.

DMEarc 10-07-2007 05:59 AM

Heard both. Recruiting is saying 1000 in the Saab. Brink is saying 2200TT/1000 in type.

There have only been a few with less than 2200.

Dont even get me started, At least the whole team is hitting like .136 not just A-Rod. This will be the return of the "YANKEE MYSTIQUE"

Hopefully my Monkey AVATAR wont be back on by tonight

This is how much we hate the yankees, we're having a 30 person kegger, to celebrate the yankees losing tonight, if they lose I'll buy you a 'goodbye torre' beer, GO SOXS!

Please....................... even if the Yankees lose tonight (which they wont) they would still be the greatest team in sports history, unlike the dirt-bag Red Sox, or the hill-billy Indians

PS. For those of you who are going to ignorantly state how the Yankees have highest payroll, I dont think there is any team in the playoffs right now that have as much "home-grown" talent then the Yankees, "Rivera Joba, Jeter, Cano, Melky...... The list goes on

Outlaw2097 10-07-2007 12:50 PM

Go Dbacks.

Period.

Ohh come on saab, don't cry too much, maybe you guys can slap some more balls (jeter ring a bell) hahaha, relax man, I know what you mean, we way overpay for our players, and yanks are a good team, but come on, I'm a Boston Native, what do you expect? I think I rattled the monkey's cage a bit much with that. Here take a banana, calm down my man.

You got us good with that one. You must be a sweetheart to share a cockpit with, hey did you check out that new A380? convo gets old after an hour. There is a life outside of airplanes.

How bout the hottest team in baseball, the Colorado Rockies. Helton, Atkins, Holiday, Tulowitzki, Hawpe, Spilborghs, Sullivan... Their list goes on too.

It seems as if you northerners think that the world doesn't exist outside of your little corner of the country. Get a map, then make your pitchers hit.

I'm a Dodger fan but since they let me down and my family has migrated to Denver, Go Rockies!!!

By they way, how's life at Colgan? At some point my Army Career will fiinally be over and I'll be looking for a normal job with about 2K TT and close to 1K ME Turbine PIC. Quick upgrade for 121 PIC in an aircraft over 25K lbs is what I'm looking for, but I don't want my life to be horrible chasing numbers that I could get elsewhere.

Aviatormar 10-07-2007 02:01 PM

HAHAH, life and sports outside of the northeast is lame, get a clue. When the Rockies where at Fenway, we mauled them, it wasn't even funny. Why don't you go and try to compete in the hardest division? Good luck buddy.

Hey, the truth hurts sometimes. I'm still torn, express, with an interview on the 16th, or AWAC with a class date on 15th.

AWAC- Industry leading pay and contract.

XJT- Mediocre pay and contract. Not to mention Saab, that would be enough to keep me from it.



I kid, I kid.

Aviatormar 10-07-2007 07:40 PM

god, know what I did tonight, I went out and met a girl who was smoking hot, but was a yanks fan, I think I'm going to vomit. What do you think saab? Boston guy, 22, AWAC or Express, I don't want to to move, I LOVE BOSTON.
