    Colgan

    Stop the insanity! Weren't you listening during indoc? You were given a gift from God when Colgan selected you to work for them, and you should treasure it always! But remember: what the Lord giveth, the Lord taketh away. So don't show up late, don't verbally abuse dispatchers or crew...

    CHQ Min's

    They'll have to lower those mins, what with all the flying they're stealing.

    Colgan HYA Summer Base

    This is classic Colgan. HYA will be a permanent base until it closes September 1st. It's just an excuse not to pay for TDY. I've seen it happen again and again.

    The DL TA

    I want to see mainline pilots flying 90 seat Dash8 Q500s if DH ever builds them. Final Jeopardy: When was the last time a mainline pilot group flew a turboprop, and what aircraft was it?

    Question For Colgan Saab Capts

    At Colgan, MEL and CDL items are listed on the release. DMI items are not - they are found only in the DMI log in the can.

    Great Colgan Rumor

    It's one thing for the FO to begin boarding without me - that's fine - I might be grunting with my pants around my ankles in the bathroom. But to start an engine without me? Forget it. You need to run a before start checklist, and that requires two people. And if anything goes wrong (hot start...

    Great Colgan Rumor

    I heard $50/check for 7 years from an FO in the crew room in Boston.

    Best Colgan Base?

    Any base where you don't fly south of LGA that isn't a maintenance base.

    Colgan upgrade seniority #

    I had a chew in during my entire Saab type ride.

    Colgan upgrade seniority #

    That would make for some very funny reading. About a year and a half ago a bitter captain in LGA went on a tear to anyone that would listen on the subject. You reap what you sow I guess.

    Colgan HYA Summer Base

    Putting your crews in hotels puts you in the red? Sad.

    Stickers

    I was just kidding. I like your work - I apologize if my sarcasm was a bit too subtle. If you ever do produce a Beech 1900C model sticker in Colgan's Captain America red, white and blue, I'll buy ten: http://www.airliners.net/open.file?id=0284860

    Street Captains

    From your desperate tone, you might already work at Colgan, one of the few companies that has consistently (and recently) hired street captains.

    Stickers

    Guy doesn't even have a Colgan 1900. What a tool.

    Mesa experience

    Sounds like the captain was far more professional than some of the crusty mainline "sorry, only one jumpseater" buffoons.

    XJT Pilots...help

    Never over-estimate any pilot group.

    Express Jet furlough question

    They've probably already learned at school that kissing teenage girls are cool. Who knew I was capable of poetry before 7am?

    Colgan Saab340 Rumor

    That was the odd thing about him. He knew better than anyone exactly which FARs and company regulations he was breaking. Going into Albany, Portland, Islip, various other Class Cs: MP: "Ask for permission to exceed 200 kts within 4nm" Me: "No Mark, if you want to, ask yourself" MP: "Request...

    Colgan Saab340 Rumor

    "Colgan XXXX, proceed direct BOSOX." "Unable." "Can you guys fly headings?" "Affirmative." "Fly heading 260." Happens all the time. The only thing that warms my heart is that I hear the ABX DC-9 guys going through the same sh!t. Except they make 4X more than I do flying the 260 heading.

    Mesa to fly Dash-8's out of JFK for Delta

    When I see Colgan Saabs in Delta colors I'm going to weep for all of us. I'm guessing Q4 2006.
