F'n idiots. I hope they fire him/her/them. What part of operational control do you not understand.Good for this pilot, looks like he isn't delirious on the company kool-aid.
IMO this pilot isn't punished..
Scenario #1- Pilot is talked to but nothing punitive happens to him. Skywest management saves face among pilots maintaining their good image. In reality this is a calculated move on management's part to keep the lemming pilots happy and a union out. A union would cost them much more then a canceled flight.
Scenario #2- Pilot gets fired/suspended. Skywest pilots realize that maybe management isn't so friendly...Start to wonder how/why SkyW Inc can be out buying airlines, investing in airlines while their pilots fly increasingly large aircraft for roughly the same pay. Pilot mutiny brings a union on board and SKWY ends up having to negotiate a real contract that could cost them millions.....
This is a contractual issue, not a personal isssue, (much less an RLA issue).
Idiots like this should be fired (plus anyone supporting these stupid actions).
Please read the RLA and associated actions ... these actions are clearly not in conformity.
