Is Captain "0" really flying "DPs to check "them" out?

Hey....I simply am pointing out that he CLEARLY lied in an email he sent to all FDX pilots. He has NOT flown ONE DP since taking over as SCP. He said he has. He also said that he has his ACPs fly DPs if he or SJ can not fly them. They clearly have NOT done that. You tell me why he would lie to 4800 pilots. Again....read his email and check his schedule...as compared to all Airbus DPs since he took over. You will not find his name on ONE DP since he was named SCP. You WILL find his name on DPs BEFORE he was named SCP. I have NO idea why an officer in the USAF or SCP would lie to 4800 pilots. Ask him yourself.

There weren't ANY DPs since he took over as ACP on the Bus???
I haven't looked at any of the Airbus DPs from way back in August (the last time the A300 had any till next month,) but is it possible that some were flown by Flexes, LCAs, or SCAs, who all qualify as "management pilots?"
He also said "When the RCPs finish stabilizing our new organizational structure, you will start to see all of your management pilots out flying these pairings as well as interacting with our crews on a regular basis."
Nothing there about ACPs already flying DPs. Sounds like you are putting words in his mouth.

"Scott Jensen and I make a concerted effort to personally fly the Airbus DPs. If we cannot fly them, I have a management pilot fly them instead"
I didn't put these words in his mouth. So..... flexes, LCA's and SCA's are also involved in this process of validating DPs? Interesting. Where did you hear that? Mea culpa. Again, if you are into the semantics of "exactly what the meaing of is is" I will walk quietly into the night. He said he makes a concerted effort to fly these DPs. How would YOU define "concerted effort"? The record is clear..........SCP and ACPs are "O" for DPs.

Also, if you read the e-mail, which I previously quoted, he did not say his ACPs are currently flying DPs but in the near future would be flying them. Those are the words it sounds like you made up.

I'm sorry. I'm sure the August pairing you cite is specifically what he was referring to as his concerted effort to fly the Airbus DPs. What was I thinking? I'm glad he is looking out for us so aggressively......along with his once-a-month pm out-and-back ACPs. Which cubicle do you sit in?
