Colgan Job Ads/Emails
 

:confused: What's really going on over there? Karen C tells me "FO's last class for the Q is April 28th." Then I get an email a couple of days ago saying "Hiring Captain's and FO's the Q.". I just saw another ad on climbto350 today saying "Q400 F/O-s-NEWARK".

Any guys at Colgan with good info would be helpful.


Thanks

This should be a hint to you about the quality of the company you are applying too.

My June 11th Class was canceled yesterday. No attrition. I got that email also its strange.

Friend was supposed to start new hire Saab ground next week, found out today class has been put on hold

still cant beleive their published mins are 1000TT and 50ME

They have put an ad in Climbto350 almost every day for the past few months.
There was one today for 1900 street ca, and q4 fo's.

There were a few people with job offers to the majors who have been put on hold due to the fuel/65 ordeal. Basically movement has slowed down and being that Colgan is very reactive rather than pro-active you are getting the mixed signals as management is running with their heads cut off. I'm def seeing some slowing here in IAH for the time being.

The Q has the potential for growth with the current economic situation, but since I don't fly it, I can't say what's going on there. I do know that Lynx canceled its 10 options, is Colgan next on the list or Horizon, I don't know, but if we are we may be expanding that market at a faster rate than anticipated.

Lastly, all FOs are getting SIC types, only think we can think of is international flying, mexican border?? Someone says that there are a few flights into mexico by express that we could potentially do.

All of the above is nothing but my own best guess and or speculations take it for only that.

Well now they have 1000/100 on their website. Amazing how they were just 300/50 a few months back and would take less with the indoc program.

Where did you hear that Lynx cancelled their options??? That is bogus.

We fly to YYZ and YUL, thats why.

In the Q yes, in the SAAB no. SAAB FO's are getting SIC types now for some reason.

hmm, thats interesting, I was not aware of that.

hmm wonder whats up their sleeves

Saabs going international?????????

See if you really read before posting something you would have noticed that I said SAAB. Again I keep hearing it's Mexico. Supposedly there are flights by XJT to Mexican bordering cities that the Saab could do. One of our guys said that's the rumor from management.

P.S. Not trying to turn this into a XJT vs 9L because I don't want to see any flying taken away from anyone, hard enough times we are all in, but perhaps something up CALs sleeve.

Hmmmmmmmmmmm <---- i can do it longer.

"Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard Colgan flight 9901, non stop service from Laredo to Nuevo Laredo."

There are really no reasonable flights possible in the Saab to Mexico. I would not count on it.

Word to the wise..................

When In Mexico, beware of transvestite prostitutes.

Huh...

Note to self When in Brazil Do the Same

That would explain alot...


I don't think Colgan will go to Mexico in the Saab. I think the sics are just in case we make a wide right down wind in Del Rio, lol.

you guys know if 9L flies to Laredo? or was that just a hypothetical for conversations sake

The word is CAL wants the Saab to start serving the small Mexican cities just over the border Monclova, Monterrey...etc. I for one do not want to fly in Mexico from what I have heard from the XJet guys.

best hookers around for $30.00 :) muwhahahah


Not that I know from experience ;)
