Thank you. I am sure that many of the fools who run their mouths here probably have all sorts of stupid crap documented that they did in their fraternities, the military or with the slumpbuster that they drug out of a bar in BUF. The only thing that matters is if you can spend four days with someone and not want to kill them and if they are a safe/competent pilot. Other than that, I do not give a crap about what the person next to me does or did in the past with their personal life.

I mean it’s not like anyone here could’ve predicted that him getting better treatment than other co workers, allowed to film and fly company planes and make money off of it while no one else can would put him in a bad spotlight from the other pilots. Right? No one could’ve called that....

Well SM is a cool kid and his videos are quite educative to prospective cadets. I'll choose him over the other one selling ED pills with a paid to view content.

Ah, Gen Z, what a great generation. Can’t live a day without getting some type of justification from social media. Put down the bull**** and live your life. No one cares about your YouTube series.

I can see why it comes across as recruitment videos, but at its core, it’s not. It’s the same style of videos is consistent with his 135 days. It’s always been about the lifestyle, do’s and don’t’s, etc...
Why Envoy allows it, idk, but it’s not any different than before Envoy. It’s just done with high quality and awesome editing. He does mention the bad parts of the industry, but always keeps it positive. Because let’s face it, the Lord knows Envoy is better than instructing.

There were other individuals at Envoy who were warned about their videos. They weren’t negative, but they definitely didn’t have the polish and positive spin that SM’s videos had.
The other guys, while at WOs, were not at Envoy. Some that I saw, while did have some airline info, didn’t have the polish and were more about the individual. Would most people consider SM’s better, probably. Certainly better produced, but aimed at a different group. Both are financially benefiting from them though.
But whether or not you like the kid, or what he was doing with the videos, his personal life choices should be his personal life. This isn’t the place for those comments.
