Why don't we have this conversation again after you have actually entered this industry. Your comments are like a virgin preaching about how great sex is. Seriously, what do you know about being an airline pilot? Like everyone else, you won't understand until it's too late.
Oh, BTW, I turned down Lakes twice...after the sim-ride, due to the crappy pay. So I've done your dirty work of trying to increase pay, see this is what you have to do. Refuse to work for peanuts and they'll have to pay you more. As long as you agree to work for the lousy pay you'll never get more. But I doubt you and the other whiners have the nerve to do this.

As Mark Twin said, "...it seems the harder I work the luckier I get." I believe this statement is apropos for some individuals on this forum.

"your" meaning Colgan flying. I guess reading comprehension wasn't part of the Colgan interview. Colgan is one of the bottom tier airlines like it or not. If you manage to bring the standards up to the top tier regionals you will begin to lose flying to another low end regional. All you need to do is look at the casualties like Comair, Air Wisky, and Expressjet for evidence that I am right.
You are doing your best to reinforce my previous observation of Colgan pilots posting like paranoid rabid chihuahuas. Relax there sparky.

Boy I remember back when I had it all figured out. From now on I will turn to industry outsiders for advice on my career.
You went to the great Lakes interview a second time in hopes of them offering more money? Well if big bucks is what you wanted I hear Colgan is hiring again. Good luck champ.

BAYSPLOSIONS!!!! BAHHH
But in all seriousness... I'm trying to get in the August class for Colgan. Are they only taking poolies? If not, where can I apply since they don't have an online application yet?

Colgan wants you to use airlineapps.com. I just wanted to wish you both good luck, we're all counting on you.
In all seriousness, I'm hoping to get a call from Colgan myself.

I think I know enough to make a decent judgment on this. However, it sounds like you and the others on this forum who constantly complain how crappy the life and pay is NEVER researched the industry, and or put your eggs in one basket and now regret it. Well step aside and let those of us smart enough to make a go of it in. All your doing is bringing down everybody else with your lousy attitude. Again, if you hate flying quit and stop whining about it!
Oh, BTW, I turned down Lakes twice...after the sim-ride, due to the crappy pay. So I've done your dirty work of trying to increase pay, see this is what you have to do. Refuse to work for peanuts and they'll have to pay you more. As long as you agree to work for the lousy pay you'll never get more. But I doubt you and the other whiners have the nerve to do this.

Wow gentlemen thats all i have to say.
