I might just call Cathy and ask her what the deal is, what am I doing wrong...
Whoa!! This might be your problem right here. You need to realize this is an hiring situation and much more goes into it than just flight time. It could be a lot of reasons, from just not interviewing at the moment to having enough apps from people who come recommended. But to have any hope at all you must polite and show a great positive attitude. I doubt highly you ****ed anybody off.
Once you have been selected for interview, flight times go out the window, meaning all of you in the interview have pretty much an equal chance. How you come across in the interview is probably the biggest deciding factor to hire.

Lots of Colgan guys don't have degrees or are still working on them. In your case I think it was unusal for them to see an MD wanting to work for them and he was curious. So it worked!

Thanks for the info regarding the classes, I have been trying since early January... Am I too eager and impatient?
