Thanks man. I'm really excited. I was drooling during the company presentation, I couldn't imagine a better company to go work for in this industry. Everyone was extremely friendly there and made you feel at home. PHL based would be the icing on the cake for me. Couldn't ask for a better Christmas present!

I just decided to actually read the mins in your first post....why do they even bother writing those, it just turns away applicants. Colgan WILL hire with WELL below those mins no questions asked. Why do regionals kid themselves, who do they think they are fooling? It is not just Colgan either.

Ok that is all..that was a blatant thread hijack so to get back on topic here.

Congrats Dave, that is good news its too bad to hear that you were never able to get the Q but you will never look back. No loss and you will do well out there.
