I think the "just a regional airline" mentaility is something the colgan pilots need to get out of their system. That's no justification for the way you guys get abused over there. The line between "just a regional" and something more along the lines of a national/major begins to blur when you operate 350 knot, 79 seat aircraft and are a subsidary of an airline with over 130 jets. The pilots have the power to step up and make it better.
Im not arguing that at all. Personally, I really havent been mistreated at all by Colgan and am happy to be in the position Im in. Im sorry to those who are truly being mistreated and spend there time disgruntled rather than enjoying the flying that we do. Words typed and "mentalities" will always be judged on furums. Im not a member of this site to get involved in fact vs fiction or he-said, she-said piss matches. I do enjoy the real info that I've gained from this site! However the personal criticisms (what "we" should do or could do and arent doing, etc) and company bashing I could do without. Seriously, though, if you have valuable advice as to what us Colganites can do, or should do that actually has a plan of attack, by all means - do share! :laff:
