Well Sky King, you are not trained and if you understand what 7.1 says in joint conjunction . Meaning they have to approve and be aware of what you file ,meaning a 3 way call. But the FAA said that no 121 scheduled airline can ask their pilots to file a flight plan because you have not been trained on how to file a part 121 flight plan. This ain't your daddies 172.

As a pilot group, we sure don't learn. Filing flight plans? Cmon guys, let's help the operation AFTER management agrees to a contract that shows we're a valuable part of the airline, not BEFORE. If I was management, I'd be looking at keeping this current contract for as long as the flight attendants have had theirs. Obviously there's no incentive for management to come to the table, they know the pilots are gonna do what management asks for. Heck, I bet if old JS asked us to take a pay cut, or give other relief from the contract, I bet the union and the pilots would do it.

I almost feel like the email is super condescending/patronizing.
Almost like, "even though we **** on your contract and refuse to pay you anywhere close to IA, you p------ still help us. Thanks!
