I was hoping but alas it tis true 2009 crash of Colgan Airlines was the last fatal crash. Colgan Airlines was owned and operated by my uncle.

The one good thing to come out of the disaster was the light it showed about the feeder airlines. Lack of training and low pay to name a few.

In this case, the Copilot had flown in from Seattle and instead of getting a hotel room opted to stay in the crew room at the hanger. The pilot did the same, however, the problem with him has he failed 5 check rides.
