I told my chief pilot his daughter's great in bed; can you fix it so I don't get fired?

what's the difference between that and flying 2000 hours at Colgan? Except if you have more time at the 121 job, you end up upgrading. 121 TPIC is far more valuable than dual given.

absolutely........................ its very difficult to get fired at a union airline

well havnt gotten one response to the question that I started this thread with. Good going guys this place is great. LOL

Im assuming you've already had a PC, if that's the case just study like it's another PC. Also, be prepared for questions like, "What makes a good captain?" "How do you earn the crews respect?" "Whats one of the biggest contributers to an incident/accident?"

Just go there and play the game. The upgrade interview in my opinion is worthless but oh well.

I actually havnt had a of yet and I probably won't because they said I should be in a mid jan class and my pc isn't scheduled for dec. Which I see as a good thing not as many chances to screw up lol

one year of 121 experience and 1900TT? scary! do you honestly think your ready to be a captain? (serious question)

There have been plenty of 1500 hour captains in Metros, Bandits, Beech 99s, 1900s, J31/32s, and yes even Saabs over the last decade.

NOT MINIMIZING EXPERIENCE, but I'd say being "captain" is just as much about good CRM/ADM skills as it is having a ton of 121 experience or the sum in the total time column of your logbook.

Express used to have 6 month upgrades in the mid to late 90s. Some probably had less than 1900TT.

Upgrade at Colgan probably isnt that bad, once you get out on the line, you deal with the same 20 or so airports in the Northeast, and out of IAH you are only going to places like CLL not much room for error if ya know what I mean. I remember out of ABE after a month or so of doing the same stuff you would memorize every airway and frequency etc........ It was nice
