I was just referring to the sim portion.
Yes, it would have to be an APD to issue an ATP. And yes, you'd be asked WX questions on top of basic aircraft system and operational knowledge.
So, there are a few differences, but nothing too difficult.

No offense to them
Personally cause I have good friends who work for Colgan, but if they get sold, Colgan pilots should be the ones to get cut, they came to this deal with a poor product that doesn't make money, why should pinnacle pilots suffer because of their poor previous agreements ? Again I hope this doesn't happen but a furlough of pinnacle pilots would be totally insane in my book. I am not trying to say this cause I am a 9e guy, it just wouldn't make sense.
I guess time will tell, good luck to everybody that does get effected

The Colgan's were broke and if someone didn't buy Colgan they were going to shut the doors anyway.
It's a miracle Colgan has hung around this long.

Does anyone know when the contract on the 16 "old Pinnacle" 900s are being reviewed or whatever you call it? I know it's probably a dumb question, thanks in advance.

Colgan wasn't making money before and after PT. If PT had not bought Colgan you would have been out of the job long before this.

Unfortunately, PT negotiated a crap contract. Simply the best.
