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.

Remember I'm a "hobbyist" pilot, therefore I did it for fun, not pay. Dude your taking yourself, this forum and me far to seriously. I will always poke fun at anybody on this forum or elsewhere that complains about how lousy life as a pilot is, yet refuses to leave the industry. Makes no sense to me. Its a great big wide world out there with plenty of opportunity for a smart fella'. Read the Cheese book and take a chance. Have you ever worked in another "true" profession? Whats your basis of comparison? Back your argument up with something and I might agree with you. Argumentative writing 101, support your premise.

R.I.P. Michael Jackson!

BOOM MICHAEL BAY!!! EXPLOSIONS!!!

YouTube - Robot Chicken: Baysplosions!!!

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?

Try CLIMBTO350.com for starters

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!:mad:

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.

your funny man. Turned down lakes twice after a sim ride...due to the crappy pay??? why would you even apply! sounds a little fishy to me. ohh ohh ok i get it your going to apply to colgan, get hired, start gound and they will tell you your wonderfull pay on your first day at class and then you throw your books at the front of the room and leave. Wow gentlemen thats all i have to say.

Suppose it is time to close this one down as well since its taking its typical turn.

In summary: Colgan is hiring for a class or two. It will most likely be for the Saab only and which base they end up in is anyones guess. Requires preferably two internal recs and 1000+ hours and 200+ multi.
