Default Envoy Pilots AA?

Had an Envoy jumpseater today. He was a young kid, mid 20s who came in and said he was AA. I asked for his docs and his badge said Envoy. I asked was he AA or Envoy. His reply was Envoy is wholly owned by AA. I then asked what he was flying and he said 175. Quite arrogant but was sitting in the back so OK, whatever.

What type of kool aid are you guys pumping into these kids?

Jeez. If your badge says Envoy, you work for Envoy, not AA.

What a tool.

While this guys is an idiot either way, I’m hoping he was “confused” since at most other airlines we have to list under AA and not Envoy for the JS.

There are a few noted exceptions who just plain think we are AA. And those idiots brew their own KoolAid.

So sorry you had to deal with that guy. Do me a favor and give your jump seat committee a call so they can call ours and this guy will get a talking to. Last thing myself or the other 90% of the pilot group needs is putting a bad taste in another pilot's mouth. Entitled, spoiled, selfish, socially incompetent, and un professional pilots is not something we need in this industry and the ones that are out there need to get a clue. Again sincerest apologies.

-Keep the dirty side down

I'll second this.

I'm at ENY and you definitely need to follow up on this.

There is a small group of dumb turds running around this place. Don't be afraid to set them straight.

Surprised he didn’t say “I’m on the 75.”

As others have said, please contact your JS committee. He's in the minority, but some of these young kids think they're a little more special than they are because they fly an RJ with engines mounted on the wing.

You have no credibility posting here Mr. "I'll go to any regional that I can, regardless of pay, work rules or contract as long as I get to fly a sexy E175 as a street CA".
