Doubt it.

they arent repo flights if they have passengers on them. His last video was “220 passengers” in the title. Nothing against him, but all his flights aren’t under part 91, I guarantee you.

False. He’s openly stated and shown how he uses footage from previous Part 91 flights in multiple flights. It’s all editing trickery. He commented on his YouTube video that while many of the shots in the “day in the life” video were from that actual day, all of the in-air shots were filmed months beforehand and edited to make it seem sequential.

There was a video of his that popped up on my feed about things he wished he would have known about being a pilot. He seemed down about regional flying. He’s only been there less than a year right?

took him that long to figure out it’s a scam and he’s been had?

Seemed smarter than that.

I just watched that. He published the video march 7th, so it's not really new. It didn't seem to me that he was down about Regional flying, per se. Rather, I got the feeling that he was just trying to enlighten potential new folks about the realities of the business.

Can we get him to post a very detailed video of how to use DECS? I would tone down my ridicule in return.

Yeah. I guess his video of “Things I wish I knew before becoming an Envoy regional pilot” came out before QT was punitively taken away by the ‘Voy. Otherwise having to learn DECS would have been the list topper.

Inb4 "it's an embarrassment to all pilots and the uniform".

But no, he's at PSA. (inb4 all the sh**post comments on this fact too).

After reading through this thread I have to agree, the amount of bitter people here is unreal.

Poor form. Our pilots are on the street while the non-union leeches at SkyWest gain more flying. Focus on the real enemy.

No clue what his seniority number is, so yeahh whats wrong with the company cheerleader making a video on furloughs, and while at it how skywest is picking up more AA flying with envoy guys on the street, or cadets with full D benefits for years to come. hmm too bad u people get offended over everything. wahh wahh

because you basically said you wanted him (and in turn those below him on the list) on the street - which would include me. So sorry for getting offended. Jerk.

or maybe he meant that he had hoped that guys seniority number was lower and in the group of people who had been furloughed. Perhaps he wasn’t hoping for 500 more people to have been furloughed but that this one guy happened to be in the group that did.

Which would make him less of a douchebag... how?

exactly. Wishing that any pilot is out on the streets is a total dick move. Maybe he’s related to Blue Falcon.

because then he’s not hoping for you and 500 of your friends to have also been furloughed as you assumed and ridiculed him for. He’s just musing about a specific person that he has distaste for to have been furloughed vice someone he has no distaste for. I’m sure if you had a say there are some pilots you would rather see on the furlough list than others. And if you say you wouldn’t then you are just being dishonest with yourself.

Regardless of what he meant about SM and furloughs, the fact that he has distaste for someone making videos about their career also make him a douche. I watched a few of his videos and they aren’t bad quality. It’s a lot of fluff and it does spin Envoy in a positive light, but anyone old enough to be making decisions about coming here is/should be smart enough not to base those on one man’s videos. There is enough material to show it for what it really is. Just do your research. Leave the guy alone and stop being a douchebag. We’ve got bigger **** to worry about than a 10 minute video on what he brings on a trip or how he commutes.

I didn’t assume squat. Or ridicule him. I simply acknowledged the fact that someone who would come on a public bulletin board and identify someone by name and express their wish that that guy be furloughed is a douchebag. That’s a simple statement if fact.

the fact that he apparently did because he doesn’t like the guy’s YouTube videos WHICH NO ONE IS FORCING HIM TO WATCH, merely ups the ante. If he had a more rational reason to dislike him, it still wouldn’t justify using an anonymous board name to vilify someone.

Indeed. From the legacy perspective it's regional pilots, who work for pennies on the dollar and fly mainline routes while we're furloughed or on reduced ALVs.

Chato 11-03-2020 04:36 PM

Nobody is wishing anyone to be out on furlough, those that got butthurt about it just took it the wrong way, and I don't have a problem with SM at all.
My point is had he experienced furlough himself maybe one of his videos would include this topic and perhaps bring more awareness to the current situation.

This Mesa dude tried to thank Envoy guys on this forum for a nice ride, and he got attacked cause his post was not properly worded. Give me a break

Because of giveaways in scope the legacy pilots have given up to their management - at least for those legacies with any scope limitations at all...:rolleyes:

Let's not be hyperbolic, he wasn't "attacked". Was his wording questioned, absolutely, because it was worded in a way that caused confusion? In terms of SM, why in the hell does anyone care what this guy posts? If you don't like it, don't watch it, seems pretty simple to me. The only time I had a real issue with the posts was during our negotiations.

Yes.

My comment wasn't serious, just making a point about throwing stones in houses with a lot of glass windows.

I think the glass houses part of your statement is spot on. Now more than ever. Pilots love to squabble over things that are out of their control (seems to be the heaviest component at APC). Probably best we not cast stones now, always another day to give some disagreeable SOB a black eye.
