It is now official.

The info is posted on the Colgan Update section on the crew webpage

The first 6 Q's for Colgan are going to EWR. This will be all the 2010 deliveries. CAL has not decided where remaining 9 Q's for 2011 will go and they "plan" on letting Colgan know in the next "several weeks." Mgmt said there will be a system wide rebid to see where everyone stands. I don't know about you but I dont like the idea of a system wide rebid when the first plane is on property in 2 months.

Let the mayhem begin.

That would be cool if EWR or anything in the NE wasn't a sh!t hole.

Newark may be a ****hole, however Hoboken, Jersey City, Westfield, Morristown are all great cities...............

Once again, the Colgan pilots and their families are left to deal with mis-steps of management.

And you thought morale was low before... Watch this!

I don't know if our management is to blame on this one. We provide feed, so we do as we're told. I don't see any memo announcing this btw. I must be blind.

I would be genuinely surprised if you actually believe in or agree with Colgan Management. This was not a "feed" problem, but a performance problem. Performance absolutely starts from the top, employees do not choose their leaders. 9e flight crews are at a substantial disadvantage from the start. The constant problems with crew staffing, scheduling, inexperienced SOC personnel, poor work rules, and inexcusable recurring maintenance issues cannot be overlooked. These problems stem from nowhere else but management. I may not be proud to fly for Cjc, but I am proud of the job I do each and everyday and truly believe the rest of the 9e pilots feel the same.

Where are you based? It can't be Iad, Ewr or Iah. An outstation I'm guessing?
