Loadmaster part of crew, No. Loadmasters typically only go on AMC, charters or sometimes startup of a new contract. They are not Union, Not covered by our Contract (or any contract). Some say they do not have any QOL, at least on the road.(Don't quote me but I think it is 20/on 10/off) They continue downline with the aircraft on stopovers/crewchange points. Hey they do get enjoy our crew meals when provided and stay at a hotel with us if the layovers long enough, I guess that is a plus.
