Anyone in Manassas today to see the new bird? If so, let's hear about it. (Ahead of time, if you want to bellyache about pay rates or otherwise, go to somewherez else, ya dig?)
 
It wasn't there as long as they wanted to show it off. They had to draft the Q pilots and the plane to ferry some saab parts to ALB.
 
...and the rates SUCK on it...

We should have asked the Q Demo pilots how much they get paid...

I was there today. It was great. Until I got in the cockpit. 3 MELS!!!!!!!!!!!!! Then when it left it came right back and made a precautionary landing something about engine vibration. I think it is still there. Oh and the rates are just fine and ALPA won't pass.
 
Bombardier has absolutely no quality assurance. Once you fly 'em around a bit reliability gets better, for the most part.

Looks like it will fit right in to the Colgan operation!...
