I agree with just about all the comments previously about voluntary verification for things other than a broken bone etc, but I have a hard time getting fired up over somebody not getting a GS that they would not have been awarded in the first place. Great it we change it, but not a priority for me.
Correct. This was actually a good change.
A different DAL Pilot will still get the GS, but it prevents guys from working the system to get green-slips that they would have been illegal for. Finally if the company has no one to fly the GS, the Pilot who called in sick will get the GS - he just can't jump in front of fellow Pilots anymore. Total win for the Pilot group.
