If you apply at Colgan
 

After seeing Frontline last night you are crazy. This is the reason pilots get treated so poorly. I almost puked when I watched the show. I'm currently on furlough from a a different airline and had no idea how bad it is over there. Unreal what people will do for a job. I'm sure some 250 hour wonders are getting interviewed there right now.

Don't be a drama queen. I been there well over a year and never encountered any of those shenanigans described by those fired employees.

He is not being a drama queen. Do you think the families of the passengers that were killed by Colgan are drama queens?

Just because you perceive that you haven't seen any of these "shenanigans" doesn't mean that Colgan isn't responsible for all this.

Standing up for Colgan doesn't help our profession, and I hope you intend to help and/or improve our profession.

You accept the poverty wages and have no respect for yourself. No excuse, there are other $20,000/year jobs out there. Ask your kids or someone else's kids where to get a different job to apply at if you can't find one yourself. Walk out of your parents basement next door and maybe there will be some neighbor kids that can "walk in your app" at the mall. By the way everyone, not everybody is going to fly heavy metal for the majors.

Colgan is not the only airline that does this man...trust me.

5 more posts before being shut down I predict....

oh the insight here is mind boggling ....

...oh and nwa757, were you fired from colgan?

Don't worry. There are plenty of pilots who'll go to work anywhere as long as they think they'll get ahead faster. Colgan is no different from Virgin or Allegiant in that respect.

What does that have to do with anything?

That's like having a murderer in a courtroom and trying to defend him by saying, "this isn't the only guy in town who's killed someone before."

I don't perceive it, I live it every day. I have never been pressured to "move the rig" and never asked to fudge paperwork. I will stand up the the flight crews that I know and fly with every day. They are very professional and perform just as well as any mainline crew I have witnessed from a jumpseat!

Every single airline in the world today could fill a one hour slot on Frontline with their own problems!

Agree 100%, yeah there might be unprofessional pilots here at Colgan, but I've not witnessed any as of yet. Plenty of other airlines have issues. Its cause of the crash we are scum of the earth cause all of you listen to the media. You dont have any idea what exactly happened in the minds of those pilots. They messed up and payed with their and 48 others lives. Look at the accidents in the past, so that makes every airline scum. No! its just several different situations that didnt turn out the way we would of liked. We are changing and making Colgan a safer better place to work at. Trust Me! The union guys are doing a great job with that.
