I think he's missing the boat here......pilots pick up white slips and green slips because it is lucrative......never once has a pilot told me he is on a green slip to "save the operation". That may be a by-product but NOT the reason for the pick-up......seems to altruistic of a motive to me.
Not critiquing the letter in general......just a point of clarification re this one point
Just a point of clarification to your post.
He did not say that the pilot's intent was to save the operation.
He said that management relies on our extra work to result in the saving of the operation.
There is a big difference.
