Wow, who needs any management-types to review and oversee 11-09 when we've got the braintrust of "understanding" right here on APC...

The last one to hold the slot was a displaced captain for 9E. The alternate was a displaced captain who is senior to many of the Colgan folks. There were only 2 spots available that these guys could hold.

If they're that concerned, they can probably make a case for turning down that pairing/trip/sequence.

Yes. I have just a hair above 4000 in the CRJ alone. Been here since 2007.

As for SLI bandit and others saying to accept it or move on, I'm trying my best to move on, as into another airline. In my time at PCL, there hasn't bee a single move by management that has hurt our careers as much as this ALPA endorsed binding arbitration ordeal did.

Well, bid whatever you want. Obviously there were lies about the prop guys wanting to stay at props. One needs to look only at ATL 900 Captain to see that more than half of those positions went to Colgan Captains, and this represents Pinnacle's most senior base. Welcome to DTW and JFK left seats. Just don't let me catch you Colgan CAs in the RJ complain about your schedule, commuting, or reserve........

I'll hold a line & drive to work. No complaints here. This ain't my first rodeo, so I'm not too worried about schedules / scheduling.

Thanks for your kind thoughts...

Have fun at GoJet Mr PIC. I can see it now... This is MY aircraft and we do it MY way. Those Colgan guys have been around long enough that they could of held ATL if they were former 9E, besides maybe the bottom one. So what are you going to do if one of them complains? Like I have said as a joke but partially true, the FOM doesnt say anything about letting an FO fly. I am sure if one of these guys feel your left arm is looking a little weak and your radio skills suck you will be riding the pine pony. Your not tough threatening what you will do on the internet and being unprofessional doesnt get anyone anywhere safely. Grow up and act like an educated professional, not some stupid entitled baby.

The differences in hire dates between the guys awarded the ATL 900 CA spots from XJ/9E vs 9L is about a year to two years, with the two year differences being the hire dates closer to 2000. We're not talking about 2001 hires being passed by 2008 hires or anything here. Calm down. Or do you just really have it out for Colgan pilots regardless of hire dates?
