Saying that Colgan makes you do things that put your tickets at risk???? Give me a break...that also means Pinnacle does the same thing since they own Colgan.
All regionals follow the same FAR's and if you or an airline break those rules....then you both would be out of business quick. The Colgan crash and the resulting FAA investigations would have found that out pretty quick. I'm guessing your informants 1st airline job was at Colgan.....and he or She is bitter. If you are dumb enough to break FAR's or you are dumb enough to pass up a job at any regional airline when you need a job (especially when that particular airline is going to double in size at a time when nobody else is hiring) , then you dont need to be in this business.
All regional airlines pay the same...give or take....all follow the same rules.....all of them have good & bad pilots, good & bad managers and all of them suck until you make captain with seniority. Making captain as quickly as possible is the most important piece of the puzzle if you want to call flying for an airline a career...or if you want to be marketable to any other airline.
I noticed a lot of these Colgan bashers are not even ATP rated......get a few more hours of integrety under your belt and a 121 flying job before you make judgement on which crappy regional airline is the best crappy regional airline.
Sounds like you are clueless. There is a reason why Colgan has fast upgrades, because no one wants to be there. If that's your thing, then by all means go for it.
