We're both smart, yet we're both flying Red Tail airplanes. Go figure. :)

BTW The needing 1,000 hours happens every once in a while at Colgan. I interviewed there in June or July of 2006 and Chuck prefaced the interview by telling me that I was just at the minimum qualifications and that most likely they were not going to be able to take me on as for the next handful of classes they were only taking people with 1,500+ hours so they could upgrade quickly. A few months later they were back to taking 600 hour candidates.


I had something similar. I interviewed about a year ago at Colgan with 900/90 and Chuck prefaced by telling me that I did not meet the multi engine minimums that they wanted and that I would most likely not get the job, but they were going to put me in the sim anyway. I didn't get the job, but two months later the multi minimums were slashed (along with minimums at every other regional). BTW, just out of curiosity, were would 11 months seniority put you in the scheme of Colgan FO's currently?

I'd say that would be a pretty senior FO. Check your PM's in a minute.

January 7 2007 hire date for me, and I'm at about number 7 for FOs.

Hey guys looks like I'll be bidding on bases again since mine is closing in Feb. Does anyone have any base info? I'd love to get LGA or HPN since the drive is only 1.5 to 2 hours. But I don't want to go to another base that's going to end up with 30 hour block times like ROC. I need to upgrade sometime this century.
