And again our business model is not similar at all other than the a/c size.........

I would rather work with "starry-eyed" people who believe in their management than an apathetic group like your bunch.......



And from what I understand these planes would not be coming from the branded side, they would be purchased...............

Saab thats all you can come back with huh? Colgan Sucks?

It doesn't matter...it's 50 seat regional pay.

Yes and our 50 seat Regional pay is better than your 76 seat regional pay, maybe you should stop busting my balls and start in on your pilot group to demand higher pay.............


I dont think I wrote that Colgan sucks in that post either

Saab this is not about Colgan! I haven't defended Colgan at all! This is about flying major airline routes for $23/hour.

Saab, you're simply irrational.

You can't stay focused. Let me guess, when you hand fly an ILS, you used the FD because you can't keep up with all the other instruments.

Sorry this thread got out of hand, I was mature, but Saab was determined to make this about Colgan.

What in the name of baby jesus are you talking about, your being hypocritical thats all I was pointing out.

And when I fly an ILS I do use the F/D, even the A/P sometimes, because my airline pays me to fly people from A to B as safely as possible, not try and prove myself to my CA's.

We get paid per completion of the flight whether its oversold or no one shows..........

Oh then you're just like every other regional. Except we are paid 100%
