Too bad Colgan wasn't fenced from the Jets for 5 years.
Its really awesome to see Colgan guys bid the jet and then only colgan guys upgrade into those vacated CA positions because nobody else can.
I feel bad for XJ and 9E guys. I guess our merger committees should have pulled out the knee pads for bloch...

Sure, the environment, plane, and airlines will be different, but do you really think this is the first time someone has gone from a prop FO to jet CA successfully? Will there be challenges, sure. Will it be a recipe for disaster? I doubt it.
And let's be honest, the hiring standards were no better at Pinnacle vs. Colgan. No need to insult folks that you haven't even met and know nothing about.

That those from Colgan who are moving over to the Jet will have a very difficult time getting through training... and possibly even fail...
Does that sound about right 9E guys? That is the exact reason why some chose to bid FO in the jet or stay on the TP's at Colgan.

All regional pilots are the same, from the EMB120 to the E195... same training... same experience levels... all are equal...
the only real pilot heirarchy...
1) Pilots who have walked a picket line
2) Pilots who have been through a furlough
3) Everyone Else...

O I know what he meant. The question is do people actually believe that will actually happen? Thats pretty unprofessional, especially if the person has a good attitude in training and keeps their mouth shut.
