That's the problem. Everyone
thinks what he is doing is wrong, but is too lazy or uninformed to look it up. Airlines are able to create nonrevenue flights without any input from ALPA. Airlines can pick pilots for these flights. I will ask this again, who do you think performs delivery flights, flights to air shows, or flights to colleges for pilot recruitment? This idea that Envoy has to offer every line pilot the same opportunity is false. What Swayne is doing is outside of revenue flying and is not subject to ALPA. Do you also claim unfairness when Envoy picks pilots to conduct interviews?
