Look out for next corporate communications message:
special mask compliance aircraft:
based out of ATW, flown exclusively by management pilots and retired, non seniority list pilots. Cornerstone of AWAC’s new pt 91 mask compliance and enforcement department (formerly flight ops). Will be flown to outstations and hubs throughout the network to ensure crews are embodying, enforcing, and indoctrinating UALs Core4 mask policy. Currently seeking LOA with FAA for in flight intercept approval for company and other non-participating aircraft not in complete mask compliance and submission.
Senior leadership is excited to show UAL leadership how innovative AWAC is in enforcing mask diktats. Also quite a relief as the -700 purchased was so old and tired that it was questionable for 121 conformity...so also saves many management jobs and will give remaining management staff something more productive to do than creating errors and confusion in future manual and checklist revisions.
Leadership is excited to take the lead in the only growth segment of the industry. We look forward to partnering with UAL to expand our proprietary mask compliance, enforcement, and surveillance program to all of our fellow express operators and eventually to all mainline flight ops.
