Default Colgan Q400 in IAH

The Q400 will be in IAH tomorrow January 30th. It will be parked in front of Atlantic Aviation. Sandwiches availabe 12-1300 in MX hangar.



The payrates on the Q400 are so bad, MC Hammer feels sorry for us.

Colgan pilots are so poor, we can't afford to pay attention.

My credit is so bad after being at Colgan, no one will take my cash.

My last check was so small, I had to shop at Old Navy. <----anyone??

I suggest that no Colgan Pilot go see that plane tomorrow. They will probably charge admission to see the airplane anyway. The airplane itself is impressive, but here at 9L for that pay rate is a slap in the face.

P.S. Feel bad for the Q400 FOs the most. It has the same payscale as teh Saab but 100 kts faster and mostly similar stage lengths. So they actually get payed less then a Saab FO to fly EWR-ALB then the Saab flying LGA-ALB

Okay,

Very funny, but I just don't get the last one about Old Navy...then again I shop at Old Navy all the time...so I guess my paycheck is small.
