If your contract has something that specifically prevents management from assigning pilots to non-revenue flights, then you would have a case. I have never seen that before and I would be surprised that Envoy and ALPA would look the other way, so I am going to assume the Envoy contract does not prevent management from picking pilots for special projects that also involves operating aircraft. Again, did you also complain when some pilots are picked to work tables at career fairs?
Apples & oranges. He is not a management pilot. You think a management pilot bids a line and flys 75 hours a month, having multiple FDP's?
If the company takes him off on S/A to do a specific flight that's pretty much management rights. So is the rest of what he's doing. They can remove and pay protect a guy, then stick SM in on a flight under S/A pretty much at will... (assuming the rules haven't changed much since I left)
