Colgan Air crew experience.

[PBRstreetgang]

Most people here are just trying to figure out what the hell happened and hoping for the best (catastrophic malfunction of some sort) while cringing at the abortion that the media is going to make this into when the crew gets blamed (and they will.....)

FD,
I am hoping that the blame lies with the crew, rather than a catastrophic malfunction. If the crew screwed the pooch, this scenario can be avoided by staying away from the pooch. If it was a catastrophic malfunction, well we all could be at risk. This job is very intolerant of mistakes at low altitude levels, malfunctions too!
Sorry for any bad feelings.
