And you show your small mindedness by thinking a few posts in APC defines a culture.
Sad stuff.

wouldn’t call it a few posts - but you certainly have a point, touché. def the minority around here.

Would seeking to film a cockpit of a parked aircraft for a kid's Zoom class and being denied by Envoy considered harm?

Why can Swayne film for his own profit, while other pilots can't even film a parked airplane for educational purposes?

Where is the equal protection?

If you were harmed in a material way (usually this is considered either losing time off or money), yes. I do not think that would qualify.

Swayne can film because company allows him.

There is no equal protection under the RLA.

This falls under management rights. Swayne is not the only pilot doing S/As, and when he is bought off his trips, bunch of line pilots pick up his stuff at 150%. Kinda hard to show real harm to our pilots. I don't have the latest number, but 2019 it was around 50 pilots who did recruitment trips as S/As. Swayne wasn't even the most active one.

By here are you referring to Envoy? I thought you flowed and got furloughed from “the greatest airline in the world.”

What are you doing for work these days? If I had to guess, it’d be used car sales.

LOL amazing work :cool:

You are correct. All I had to do was bring it to the attention of ALPA and a corrected paycheck was issued. My point was that if the company is violating the contract, ALPA will address it. If for some reason, the company didn't correct my paycheck, it would have gone through the entire grievance process.

The idea that Swayne and Envoy are violating the contract be either not paying him out of management's marketing budget or assigning him flights that some other pilot should have been able to do yet ALPA doesn't think that is important is laughable. I have seen ALPA take far less much more seriously.

Envoy ALPA isn't typical ALPA. They don't rattle the cage in fear of jeopardizing their own flow. Company has a history of targeting and firing union reps.

At envoy you have to submit a contract dispute for any violation.

The only thing that gets done outside of the contract disputes are representation and the odd phone call to scheduling when there’s still time to correct something for a pilot.

What happens if you directly ask your rep about what Swayne is doing. Get a rep responding in email that Envoy is violating the contract, but ALPA doesn't want to fight it.

You can either use that to run a campaign against that rep, or if Envoy ALPA is that bad, start a decertification process. Why pay union dues if your union doesn't want to defend the contract?
