Pretty sure he was, but don’t know his background.

Legitimate question because I literally do not know. If a scab is denied a JS from the CA, does that have problems with the union from a JSing point? Eg, can that CA be called in for a talk with management? With the union JS committee chairman?

It is no issue at all. The Jumpseat belongs to the Captain. Scabs can whine all they want. There is no requirement to take them. Management and Alpa both know this. Perhaps pre merger it was a different environment at CAL, but those days are long gone.

The airline guy on Denver Center today who yelled at the controller to "hurry up! I've got moderate turbulence!" when he was told to standby for coordination with the lower sector for the altitude request.

Student who shows up at the flight school wearing a military/Top Gun leather jacket.....for his flight in an Archer.

Flight instructor who openly discourages students love and passion for flying by commenting negatively on the students choice of apparel.

Unfortunately at my airline we have zero control over adding non revs, ever since Central Load Planning took over. If we were to get in an argument with the gate agents over it theyve been told to report us and we get to do a CP carpet dance where we are reminded "Your captains authority means nothing to us on the ground."

This isn't boot camp. I think it's funny that he did it. The only tool here is you.

Lighent up scm2020. Mom and Dad will give you a Top Gun Leather jacket when you graduate from Piper Warrior flight training.:rolleyes:

Perhaps they can keep standbys out of your hands, but the Feds say that the Jumpseat is yours. I would still make a cursory check in the boarding area if i were you, since so many agents will ignore our fellow pilots. The plane won’t leave without you, so it behooves the agents to do the right thing.
