Colgan rules! I just took the dressing off my Colgan ankle tattoo. I says SAAB 2000 then underneath that Colgan rules. Prop 2 jet you are so nice. You constantly give good advice with tame humor. You are a really good poster. Can you F ing stop it. I want to throw up at the thought that I know you. Go stick it in the wrong hole with that woman of yours and stop wasting our time and embarassing the company.

From my experience here's the good and the bad about Colgan.

Good:
If you have a problem you can call some who will at least listen to your problem and may even help you out.

Movement!!!! need I say more.

Experience you can brag about if you're flying ILS's into RKD and BHB on winter nights.

Having good answers to furure HR questions when it comes to "How did you deal with a difficult Captain?"

Bad:

Outstation basing!!!!

The Colgan reserve tours

HYA MX (I guess it may have improved, but it was really bad when I was there)

REPO flights. Colgan does more part 91 than some flight schools.

PQI in January & February

Sitting on reserve in BHB during a snowstorm and getting call from scheduling to drive to Augusta while you cannot even get to the road.

Did I mention Outstation basing?

My advice to the future colgan pilot is have an electronic logbook. The combination of pt 91 and 121 flying can make you illegal real quick. That and alot of patience will go a long way.

Well here is my take. Deal with the crap for one year, get your type....deal with the crap another year in the left seat............transition.........deal with the crap for a couple more years....and land a kick ass spot somewhere else. Good plan huh?

Colgan PVD Base

What would be the likelyhood of getting PVD as a base? Sr. or Jr.?

Thats 4 years. And if that "kick ass" job doesn't happen, deal with crap another year, and another year, and another year.

Sounds pretty risky to me. But maybe those kickass jobs are really easy to get once you get that 1000PIC.
