| I hope this isn't true but I saw a rumor where Colgan lost the EWR Continental contract. Anyone at Colgan hear this? I hope this is only a rumor. |

| Almost certain thats not true. Seggy was just at a meeting the other day, and we heard some good news about the Beech phase out. Lets just say by November, possibly even sooner, Seggy and I might be in transition training for the Q.

Well that's good to hear. Didn't make any sense so I figured I'd ask you guys. When are more of the Beeches headed? I know good old 220CJ is already gone. hehe I remember staying all night at the FBO with the mechanics who drove 4 four hours from HYA to fix that thing more than once. | |

| Senior Member | I don't think ours are from Horizon. From what I've heard, ours will be factory new and it's 10 the first year, with an option for an additional 15 in 2009.

| Horizon will not be selling any Q400's anytime soon. Management loves them. They make alot of money even with maintenance issues. Basicly within 400 nm they are as quick as a CRJ(Block time within about 5 min give or take), hold 4-6 more passengers than the CRJ700, and burn half the amount of gas.

| speaking of q400's, any of you other colganites remember where they posted the list for who's going to the q400? I looked on creweb and the other site, but couldn't find it. I'm trying to figure out who is leaving for the q400 and from where, so i have an idea what bases will have vacancies. If you find it, shoot me a pm. thanks
