Maybe you also do not know this but delivery flights are usually picked up from the factory by, you guessed it, pilots designated as management pilots (meaning that they have special designation and another job title other than line pilot) or by pilots on reserve in accordance with the reserve rules outlined in the, you guessed it again, ALPA contract.
So the majority of your accusations are solved if Envoy gives Swayne a title. How do you know they didn't? He has been doing this for years, this thread gets a lot of attention, do you think ALPA isn't aware? Rather than throwing uninformed accusations around, contact your ALPA rep and get to the bottom of it. The accusations on this thread are very serious. Every few months, there is an airline pilot trying to make it on youtube. Most get shut down pretty quickly because they end up violating a company policy. The fact that Swayne has been doing this for so long with so much attention makes me think ALPA is aware and doesn't care.
