don't apologize to me, I avoid that place like the plague................It was "new & exciting" for the first time then it was a PITA. Seriously though Mexico is very strict about Aircraft & MX etc.........I dont think they want Colgan down there, you guys don't have the best MX department............

Colgan is a disgusting under-cutting disgrace to the profession.

ouch...........and if you were an expressive person, what would you say?

I feel the same way, I hate companies like that, Chautauqua, Mesa, etc. Companies that practice that Bull******* should be put out of business. I put them at the same level as those pilots who want turbine time, and offer to fly for free.

I'm pretty sure management has more of a role in the equation than you are giving them credit for (but they aren't here for you to pick on I suppose).. the pilots have no say in what margins mgmt will accept in a codeshare agreement. If "X" company will accept a 8% ROI, while "Y" company will only accept 15% ROI... the pilot compensation / performance cost becomes less of a bargaining issue. Not quite sure how my community college retarded self knew that and an O.C. superstar like yourself didn't. But hey, if it makes you feel better; bash away.

I can't remember the last time I heard the pizza delivery guy complaining about the guy down the street selling pizza for $1 less than his joint. How does he sleep at night knowing that other guys are stealing his job.. stealing his customers.. what a bunch of scabs those delivery drivers are .. sheesh.. (In that analogy it seems silly for the DD say claim the customers as "his" doesn't it?)
