There is a guy here with the screen name of Seggy that can tell you about Colgan.

Click on Seggy

That's Seggy

Once, again, in case you missed it, Seggy

So, yeah, just ask Seggy all your Colgan questions. He's a new Capt over there at Colgan.

Seggs has a new ladyfriend so he's been a little hard to catch, but at least 30% of the Colgan seniority list browses on a daily basis. Lemme text Seggy and see if he's free.

Well you're not new by any means, but haven't posted much. I'll give you one free search. The rest are going to cost you.

Search Function is a Wonderful Thing

Today is the first day of class for my upgrade training at Colgan Air.

All in all, this is a good place to be and highly recommend anyone coming here. We are going to hire between 200-300 pilots for the rest of the year, have new aircraft orders, and have a great pilot group. In my 20 months here, I have been very happy, and thankful, so far, with my career progression at Colgan.

The interview process is pretty straight forward. They do have interviewees do a full motion sim eval. Use Microsoft Flight sim with the LearJet (use a joystick) and shoot approaches at 140 knots to prepare.

Any other specific questions, don't hesitate to ask!
