The idea that Swayne and Envoy are violating the contract be either not paying him out of management's marketing budget or assigning him flights that some other pilot should have been able to do yet ALPA doesn't think that is important is laughable. I have seen ALPA take far less much more seriously.
I have never seen any evidence that Envoy is paying Swayne for the videos. Well, apart from these APC rumors that most of the time are unsubstantiated.
My understanding is that he gets his payment through YouTube ads, not from Envoy.
The flights he did for filming was when he was on reserve. S/A flights on rsv do not go above guarantee, so he was flying for free. There are quite a few pilots who do special assignments, and no-one complains about them.
I still fail to see where the harm or contractual violation is.
