Doubt it.

That’s why the second sentence was there.

ONLY one is afforded that opportunity NOW. The very thing the airline condemned one person for is the very thing that is now happening. And for the other responder I do work at Mesa not Envoy but I feel free to point out idiotic hypocrisy where I see it.

Would I love to see one where on day 4 he gets a creeping MX delay and then gets a JP into a day off where he has to ferry a plane to CMH and make his way home? Yup. Showing the full experience would be great, but he doesn't tell any lies in his videos. He gives accurate descriptions, (he highlighted how commuting blows without saying commuting blows) and in his last one, he was flying with an awesome captain who probably went a long way in mentoring him to make solid command decisions when he upgrades. The kid has a good hustle going on. As a lover of the free market, I say good for him. Make that paper. Hopefully, he will make some more realistic videos this fall as the industry continues to embrace the suck.


Very good overview. I agree.

He has more hustle than half the pilots here, that's why a bunch have their underwear twisted up.
The amount of butthurt that's going to happen here is going to be epic when he beats the flow by a decade.

Don’t get things twisted. Just because guys don’t post their flying lives on social media doesn’t mean they lack hustle. Most guys “hustle” at more tangible assets like families, hobbies and side jobs. You know, the things that don’t revolve around constantly videotaping themselves and trying to become a one man YouTube channel. But if he wants to be the next Kardashian more power to him.

That was hard to watch. I am amazed that someone in HR and Management would think this is a good look for the company and airline pilots. What is so special about airline pilots dancing around like morons? Is that a good look to the public? I just don't understand how anyone in charge would approve this.Shameful, really.

Swayne's shtick is actually not that bad. People dancing like jackasses or trying to incorporate their career into some cry for desperately wanted attention is another issue.

dancing like a fool on tiktok to get attention from the userbase of that app, which is mostly underage kids, is creepy as hell for a grown man to be doing

Probably not. Look at how many can't keep a balanced checkbook.
