From what I've just seen in a couple of news articles, the Colgan Air name will be soon gone.  Colgan is owned by Pinnacle Airlines, which also owns Mesaba.  It sounds like they will merge Colgan with Mesaba, keeping the Mesaba name.  Colgan currently operates flights under the Continental Connection, United Express and US Airways Express names, while Mesaba flies under Delta Connection.
