Colgan To Fly 340's For United!!!!

[suupah]

Has it been announced yet?

 

[viper548]

Where is the flying supposedly going to be?

 

[BeechCowboy48]

I heard we picked up shuttle america's POS A models to go with their routes. Flying yesterday's airplanes into tomorrow......

 

[Fins Up]

I have it on good authority that the United filghts will be in the New England area.

 

[Alaska82]

I heard that we were going to pick up a bunch of AMR's B models

 

[I.P. Freley]

Why would Colgan go for the retiring SA A-models, when all their other Saabs are B's? It's not like there's a shortage of B's or anything, although the SA birds have already been painted.

 

[MELIT]

Colgan will kill you!

They are going to use the 340's that are in Houston because CO is going to give them the boot. Colgan is is more like a chop shop. There performance sucks. 25% on time and 76% completion. Way to go guy's. They lost 8 mechanics in the last week an a half because they refuse to work in those conditions. If United give's you a contract I'd be suprised. Colgan is the worst Regional.Period. I have to ask one Question. What takes you longer, doing your pre-flight or reading all the inop stickers?

 

[Godfather]

great....

does this mean we're not gettin the 50 seaters now? Let the mayhem begin!

 

[BeechCowboy48]

takes longer to read the inop stickers

And what stellar company do you work for?

haha, exactly. It seems the only 2 you can work at on this board are UPS or Fedex. Every other place has some sort of a knock on it, and people love this.

Mesa: bottom feeders
CHQ: bottom feeders
Colgan: bottom feeders
SWA: PFT...gotta pay for the type
United: living through bankruptcy
Jetblue: no pay, will be screwed when they pay for their planes
Airtran: they are value jet you know
Eagle: have fun upgrading on 7 years
Coex: people did PFT here back in the 90's
Comair: this place used to suck, so you may suck if you work there
Continental: 1st year pay is 30K, so the whole place sucks


So if a dude wants to rip on a company and someone asks him where he works, what is the best answer that would not warrant any kind of comeback? I think the only possible answer is Fedex, but the comeback would be: "prove it"

Guys rip on FedEx cause you have to know someone or 3 to work there.

The horror!!!!

How many times have you checked the can for MEL stickers to put on the non-dimmable EGPWS button, only to find them all used up? A uniquely Colgan experience.

Oh, well i see their you have military experience. HA!!!!!!!

American: you guys screwed TWA pilots
USairways: you screwed over your furloughees
Skywest: you suck cause you have no union
Horizon: slow upgrade
Commutair: you only fly a beech 1900, and for low wages
Independence: screwing the industry by giving the seats away for free
PSA: you got jets and piedmont and allegheny didn't, survey says: you whores!

Boston maine: you suck
Pinnacle: a haven for PFT hires= you suck if you work there, and are a whore
ASA: you fly 70 seaters, which kill mainline jobs. Ruining the industry
Delta: soon to have a pay scale much lower then SWA for similar equipment



Where to work, where to work?
Fedex does have that $50 fee too. You know, your place sucks.

 

[Godfather]

I guess we all suck then. I should have been a lawyer....wait...that means I would suck too. Would Male Gigilo constitute being a sucka$$ career?

 

[Prop2Jet]

Just wait for this conversation to turn perverted !!! hahahahh
Now since we all suck I guess we need to measure the differential sucking power between each airline to figure out who sucks harder!

 

[outtahere]

The problem with Colgan is you don't realize how bad it sucks until you escape the whirlling vortex of terror.

 

[dh82dvr]

sure is a lot of sucking in this business

I think a need to smoke and grab a cold shower

 

[Prop2Jet]

Nice!

Aren't you the dude who's resignation letter looked like it was written with a crayon?

 

[BeechCowboy48]

I was gonna write my letter in crayon, but another guy in the crashpad ate the whole box so I had to use a sharpie marker instead.
