I can. And I want nothing more than for him to keep his job with the RAA. He gives off a very poor image for regional airline management. Throughout his Congressional testimony this past year and on this program tonight, he continues to give that image.
He is very out of touch and arrogant. So we should be happy about management having an advocate who accurately reflects their general attitude.

Who is this Roger Cohen idiot? Does this guy seriously not care about other human lives? Man I thought Colgan had some serious problems after watching the special, but clearly no one has more problems than Roger Cohen.

Couldn't agree more Roger Cohen for the RAA was a MAJOR douche. Talking about "average pay" for regional airline captains and FO's, ok but that average is being dragged higher by the Skywest's, Expressjets, Horizons of the industry. I'd be interested in average for Fo's at Colgan or lets just say average first year it's misleading to talk about an overall average.
I feel a little ashamed but I didn't know that code shares indemnify their mainline carrier for all liability.... that is a HUGE incentive to shift as much flying to a regional as you can even disregarding pay.
Overall VERY good reporting on the part of PBS, I feel like I should make a donation to them.... maybe 2% of my salary, more reports like that are worth an ALPA amount.
