Hometown News: 3407 Probe Speeds Up

A Federal Aviation Administration probe is focusing on pilots scheduling, as part of the investigation of Flight 3407. The FAA is trying to determine if Colgan Air violated federal regulations by over-scheduling its pilots. A parallel National Transportation Safety Board investigation is scrutinizing Colgan's pilot training program, especially related to how the plane's stall-protection system operates during icy conditions. The NTSB will be holding a three-day hearing in Clarence Center on those findings next week.
