F9 Capt. denies XCM to Express Pilot
The F9 pilot group needs to have one of those “talks” with one of their own. I witnessed an Express pilot that was cleared for CASS on F9 flight 250, DEN – IAH on 03 June being denied XCM by Capt. Leonard M. He was the only jumpseater for that flight and the agent was having trouble relisting him for a seat in the back. Instead of accommodating this quiet and respectful FO in the cockpit and despite the best efforts by the F9 FO the Capt. denied him jump seat. This Capt. has been around long enough to know how the system works but I guess he doesn’t commute or has never needed to get any where. I’m hoping a few of the F9 pilots have a little talk with him and bring him back into the fold. The other 99% of you guys and gals are a great group and always go out of your way to help anyone hitch a ride.
