If you apply at Colgan
After seeing Frontline last night you are crazy. This is the reason pilots get treated so poorly. I almost puked when I watched the show. I'm currently on furlough from a a different airline and had no idea how bad it is over there. Unreal what people will do for a job. I'm sure some 250 hour wonders are getting interviewed there right now.

Don't be a drama queen. I been there well over a year and never encountered any of those shenanigans described by those fired employees.

Just because you perceive that you haven't seen any of these "shenanigans" doesn't mean that Colgan isn't responsible for all this.
Standing up for Colgan doesn't help our profession, and I hope you intend to help and/or improve our profession.

Don't worry. There are plenty of pilots who'll go to work anywhere as long as they think they'll get ahead faster. Colgan is no different from Virgin or Allegiant in that respect.

He is not being a drama queen. Do you think the families of the passengers that were killed by Colgan are drama queens?

Every single airline in the world today could fill a one hour slot on Frontline with their own problems!

I don't perceive it, I live it every day. I have never been pressured to "move the rig" and never asked to fudge paperwork. I will stand up the the flight crews that I know and fly with every day. They are very professional and perform just as well as any mainline crew I have witnessed from a jumpseat!
