I appreciate the jumpseats and always welcomed you on ours. As a former regional pilot Comair was the one to look up to and aspire to be like. Good luck in your future endeavors and God bless.

Walking around DTW today and it has an erie feel to it; no more crusty old Comair pilots. I've had nothing but respect for you guys over the years and you you were truly a class act pilot group.

I hope the end of Comair is a new and better beginning for you all.

Thank you Comair pilots for all the jumpseats for the past 17 years. Commuting to CVG was always a pleasure with you folks at the helm. Best of luck to all those affected by this horrible chain of events. As a former DHL puke I can tell you that things WILL get better, it's just going to take some time.

Thanks for all the kind words and support. I spent the last 26 years at Comair, it is a sad day indeed.

Good Show Gents (and Ladies)!

The people of Comair can hold their heads high knowing they provided good service to their passengers and a good place to work for many years.

I still remember the jubilation industry wide when your strike was settled and you had a REAL contract. I had gladly paid the Strike Assessments even as a Saab FO, and the thought of taking the Regional Industry "up" was beyond many's wildest dreams.

Sadly, by thinking that you were real pilots flying real airplanes with real passengers, you invoked the ire of the Harvard MBA crowd, and they have forever changed the business model to ensure it never happens again. In the process they have also ensured that any one who has been here long enough to know the ropes now has a target on their backs and is subject to the same demise unless they continue racing to new lows.

I too have lost a flying job due to closure and I can say that I was hurt and angry. In time I was able to see that it actually was the best thing for me- it got me moving. Use this as a time to make life for yourselves and your families better, and look back only occasionally, with fond memories.

GOOD SHOW!
