Just FYI,

The last few accidents involving US airlines in the states all had pilots with P2F backgrounds from Gulfstream Airlines. It was well known as the sleaziest outfit in the states where pilots who couldn't get jobs at the better regionals went to pay for their time. Since Buffalo, where one or both pilots came from gulfstream before getting on with Colgan, the requirement to fly at any 121 carrier is 1500 hours and an ATP. Basically no more P2F in the states because it has proven fatal in several cases.
