Located where else but in the heart of the "GARBAGE STATE":D:p

Jk...laugh a little people

The day Colgan opens its IAH Q400 base, there is going to be a giant sucking sound of people bailing out of EWR.

Trans States pay sucks....but they weren't on washington trying to defend it....well, that RAA idiot was....hmmm.....I guess we're all kinda under scrutiny, but still thinking some more than others...

PS, i'm not TSA anymore....i QUIT!:cool:

keep flight instructing and hauling the frieght kids!!! If you line up for this kind of pay and QOL how will the colgan pilots ever get a contract!

yeah ewr is pretty much the worst place ever to commute in and out of...its notoriously, reliably unreliable.

just got what looks like a form email from Chuck Colgan asking me to update my app if I'm still interested in a job there.

After 8 months of being a minimum wage ramper for Lakes, I'm ready to be a near minimum wage pilot for Colgan...

Do us a favor, if you have a crap attitude please dont even update your resume. I love how people talk so much crap all the while trying to get on at Colgan.

Colgan is what you make of it. I am home based, get top 3 schedule and fly with great people. Everything else is being worked on and will get better over time. People need to have that attitude when coming here. I want to smack some of the people we have here when all they do it moan and complain all the while doing nothing to improve conditions.

Anyone ever notice that Colgan guys are extremely defensive and hostile on here? They are also quite the vocal bunch for being from such a small airline.

I have to aggree with juice, there are reasons at all carriers that guys are happy there, every person and every company have things that are more important to some employees than others. One pilot may prefer no stand ups or hot reserves , or living in base as opposed to straight pay per hour. Everyone has things they are looking for in their job, and most jobs you get back what you put in. Sure my own company is in negotiations for a new contract and there are some things Id like to see changed, but even if it stays the same its good enough for me to stay there a while longer and not be totally disgruntled. I think people get defensive because people behind computers ussually spit garbage they really have no knowledge on, and Juices point is very valid at any carrier. If your going to bash another carrier, just dont go there with a chip on your shoulder while on APC your bashing them
