It’s all just such a one sided lie, like the Ryanair IG *****s. Swayne deserves the glares I hope he gets on the line.

Of course it's a set-up! In order to do any of this, he'd have to work with the company to get access or approval. Based on what I saw in his first video, he filmed on the ramp so he's clearly worked on getting everything signed off on, which isn't easy these days I might add! So what exactly is wrong with that? At least he's smart enough to do it the right way and not stumble into a new airline creating chaos.
If you don't like what he publishes, don't watch it. It's not meant for you anyways. I just don't understand what's up with all the complaining about this. It's so insignificant... It's amazing to me that any of you are spending time worrying about this.

No kidding! I watched his video and actually enjoyed it a bit, even if it is a bit cheesy with the music (but I think that's what sells these days). It was edited well, he was well spoken, and he seems genuine.
My guess is this guy spends only a few years at the Regional level before moving on to a Legacy. He seems to be a self starter who won't just sit around and wait for what he wants to just drop into his lap.

Maybe I’m out of place for saying this since I’m around his age and just a CFI... but Swayne doesn’t seem like the typical vlogging millennial douche people try to make him out to be.
I watched his Mokulele videos recently and everything he’s done has been methodical, planned, and approved by his previous airline and the FAA. I’ve seen other idiots online that haven’t even come close to the level of planning he’s clearly done. He even did some hiring opportunity video for Mokulele through his channel and got over 100 qualified apps ... he’s clearly framed himself to be desirable to airline recruiting departments and I think that’s exactly what he’s doing.
I don’t have anyone in my family who flies, and it’s kinda cool to see his career progression before I make it there myself... Again, I’m a millennial, so don’t take my word for it if the label “millennial” means my opinion is automatically worthless

How dare you make such a rational statement. Don’t you know all these old timers need something to whine and complain about while they’re in the crew room.

It is absolutely pathetic that this thread is continues to be so negative. Rule number one on here don't talk about real people unless you post your own name. I just want to throat punch you when I read those comments.

He's made himself a public figure. Doesn't apply.
