Several of those new management positions are for Houston. That operation is going to be very independent of the rest of Colgan ops.

Sorry big H.. can't spin this one away.

Unless TX will be a completely seperate company on a completely seperate certificate, you can only have one DO. Donnie a go go.

Word from the CJC world Kremlin HQ is that a new DO position is opening up. DN stay stay. Feds want this DO position in. Been in works for some time now and it will be filled by someone already here. The new Asst. CP post has been filled too.

Word is EG is outta here headed somewhere else. There is suppose to be a new Asst. CP in MNZ and a new Regional CP in Texas. THe New DO position will over see day to day ops and report directly to DN and it's not DR!

DO position

Is there a website to see or apply for that position? I know someone that's interested in it. Where is the current DO going?

I think's it at www.climbto350.com in the members only section. Our current DO is actually VP Ops. He's not going anywhere. This is a new position that will be in Manassas thanks to Eddie the Feddie. Chper is right just one certificate separate ops like CHQ TSA and Mesa.

Anus????

the way things went this week, my whole bod is broke sore and in traction needing some viagra from Canada just to get out of bed. You'll love this one....DR said that my plane would be fixed in 30 minutes the other day during the BIG SNOW.......6 hours later........but the good news is your ferrying a plane to Texas when you get off after your 14 hour duty day. It never ends.

BRA'S "Friend's" anus

BRA- My "friend's" anus is also hurting. It was a bad week on the Beech to say the least. I have never had so many problems with multiple aircraft in a week's worth of flying. I was able to escape for a while, thank God!

I met with one of the Colgan pilots in Florida this past week and he told me that after you transition to the saab your QOL increases 10 fold. Personally I have been waiting 4 1/2 years to upgrade in a d-8, and it sounds like colgan has a great oppurtunity to get that all important PIC time. I got my papers in with them and if I get the call the colgan folks will definitly have a happy pilot.

Island Hopper,

I can't speak for the folks flying the SAAB, but it appears that they have pretty good schedules/block time. The ORF crews in particular have a pretty good deal over there. You either fly 2 LGA turns in the AM or 2 in the PM. Not to mention the fact that Virginia Beach is nearby.

only problem is you have to sell your soul to the evil one to get a captain slot in ORF ...

I too have heard that QOL does get better in the Swedish love machine ... especially if you get to fly one of those freshly painted Captain America saabs, saw it at LGA today, pretty snazzy .... wink wink

Hello,
Yeah, I saw LVS in the hangar at HEF a couple of weeks ago. Airplane is one of two that they picked up from an airline in Mexico. Anyone heard anything more on the SAAB 2000 rumor?
