I know a lot of Colgan Airways and Colgan Air pilots knew Capt. Mitch Collins through his roles in both companies training departments. Sadly Mitch passed away Friday evening at the age of 50. No word on services.

Sorry to hear that. He did my training in 2002.

Do you have a link to an obituary?

Thanks he was my instructor too.

Sad

I'm sad to hear of his passing. He was a great instructor and pilot. He was also a lot of fun to be around and talk flying with.

As soon as there is any word on a memorial, please pass it along.

Wow... What was the cause of death? 50 is far too young.

Hey Colgan guys and gals, truly sorry for your loss, think I should add that since we are one big unhappy dysfunctional family, we too lost a great leader today at 9E. Captain Lynn Delorme passed away this morning after complications from a stroke he suffered a few days ago. He was a security trainer, a police officer, and a fantastic line check airman for us. He will be sorely missed as I am sure the same goes for you. Thoughts and prayers, R.I.P Gentlemen....
