Do the Colgan

[suupah]

I wasn't aware of a meeting with them.

Write up a plane in BOS. Last day before my 3 days off. Call Nicole, give her the news that the plane is dead in the water. She converses briefly with our other chief pilot, mikey, and tells me to run up to the terminal. We are DH to DCA, van to Dulles, DH to AOO. Picking up a plane and bringing straight back to our base. Somehow make it to AOO, take-off, call the times in and ops says to hold over the airport, they may need us to come back. The Beech on the ground broke. Hold for 45 minutes and they say yup come back. Find out we're now flying the AOO-IAD trip. Land p/u people go to IAD. Finally going home. Big plans on my day off the next day. Not so fast young man, this is colgan F'in air. You're going to HYA. We're gonna need you to fly the first flight out of HYA but we'll have you home on your day off by 2pm at the latest, so its not that bad. And because the initial cancellation was MX I ended up making less pay credit than my originally scheduled day. Sweet. Do di da do

WHO the Heck puts the friggin World Cup on in the Breakroom at LGA .Couldn't find a darn rampy all day! One damn air cart and not a rampy in sight. I mean load your own bags,bring down your peeps, hook up the tug. The only thing we can't do is push the damn SAAB out of the spot.

How about we invest in a damn TIVO so they can push us back and then go back to the game!!

 

[Saab guy]

We do what we can with Maint, when parts are AOG and not in stock, don't blame the mechanics. We do care about the Planes and you guys/gals flying them, try complaining to planning and purchasing for a change.

Saab Guy

what would you consider doing the colgan at the maintenance end of stuff?

 

[Saab guy]

robbing parts, robbing parts, why does purchasing sit around and fart? where are my parts? don't worry they will be in stock the day the MEL drops but don't worry about spinning the props just let them turn till the MEL drops. da do do do da colgan!

But like I said we do what we can with what we have.

Peace to all you crews!

ok, now that was scary.....

 

[heywatchthis]

Colgan has the best freaking mechanics in the industry. Those guys fix airplanes without having any parts. OK, make that the best freaking magicians in the industry.

 

[suupah]

uhmmm yeah. well, i am sure the maintenance guys hold wizard licenses cuz they keep these things flying. tho i am sure it is always crisis management, which i bet gets tiring.

 

[cloudkicker1981]

EZ E a day in the life doin da colgan

Woke up quick in the ops room
Just thought that I had to be at Colgan soon
I gotta get there before the show time
Before my captain starts b!tchin' 'bout my low time
About to go and dang nearly went blind
Young fo's on the ramp throwin' up gang signs
Ran into ops and grabbed my clip
With the Mc10 in the side of my hip
Bailed outside and pointed my weapon
Just as I thought, the fools kept steppin'

Cruisin' the line in my saab 3-fo
Jackin' the bitches, slappin' the ho's
Went to ops to get the scoop
Knuckle-heads down there cold shootin' the poop
A cart pulls up, who can it be?
A fresh off IOE captain rollin Kilo G
He rolls down his window and he started to say
It's all about makin' that ETA


Cuz the boyz in da colgan iz alwayz hard
You come talkin' that trash we'll bull your card
Knowin' nothin' in life but to be legit'
Don't quote me boy, cuz I ain't sayin' sh!t ...

next verse please.....anyone?
