Does anyone know if these pilots were graduates of the COMAIR academy?
The captain was a graduate of the Comair Academy, now the Delta Connection Academy, according to this article:

He was also a Rutgers graduate with a degree in economics.

There was an AirTran pilot onboard, not sure if he was in the cockpit at the time of the crash.
