How does the pilot group benefit from having a select group of pilots (including at least 2 SAPA reps) who are close to retirement, fly airliners as a hobby?

How does one issue have to do with the other? Is it conceivable for reserve pilots to fly airplanes Roswell and not have to drive a rental car? Somehow other regionals have figured that out. Or is this something else that they have been getting away with?

Too bad there isn't an organization of pilots that acts as a repository and distributor of information, especially of the kind that management would benefit from pilots not knowing about.

Except for not having to drive a rental car in the regional world is not uncommon. It's not like this happens at all regionals. I'm not sure it happens at any other than this one. So your argument doesn't seem to hold water, actually.
