Statement from Colgan Air regarding pilot fatigue [USA]

We want to emphasize that if there was a fatigue issue with Captain Marvin Renslow or First Officer Rebecca Shaw, it was not due to their work schedule. Colgan's [part of Pinnacle Airlines] flight crew schedule provided rest periods for each of them that were far in excess of FAA requirements...Flying fatigued or sick is not an option at Colgan. Like every airline, Colgan must rely on the professionalism of its pilots to fulfill this duty obligation.
