Too much hostility on this thread, cant we just all agree that a current MEC officer and future Management Pilot are interchangable terms and assume that a DP flown by a future management pilot does not effect the DP Process?

Looks like some "young guns" are not getting the word about DPs.
(Note: Employee #s can be deceiving)
I'd hope we are not breeding a new generation of DP flyers....and calendar blockers, but we could be.

Come on "young guns" ---- we need to "run all the way thru the finish line" in June!
Sponsors & classmates --- please Mentor, Educate & Communicate.
Remember, one can "pick up" a DP, and one can also "drop" it!
Fly safely!

You are both jumping the gun. The Capt. is flying both of those in "Association Flyback" status. The Association gets paid the CH's (not the Capt), Capt gets a landing, it doesn't count as a "picked up DP', a reserve guy doesn't get boned with it and the Capt writes up the "Si##y Pairing in a safety/fatigue report.
Basically he is jumping on those grenades for us. A little research will prevent these mis-understandings in the future.........
P.S. Nice 22nd post there "Butter"...........

ANC MEC rep put out an e-mail last month which disputes this. The bottom line is, the SIGs power comes from guys avoiding trips, for whatever reason. If someone accidently picks one up they need to drop it, to show these are not being voluntarily picked up. Yes it hurts, but the damage is not done until they pick it up and then fly it.

Just curious,
When did the DP process begin? Do we know how many pairings in total have been identified as DP's? And, how many of those pairings have been changed as a result of the DP process? That would probably answer how well the program has worked so far. Hopefully, the numbers support the program, even in spite of the guys who continue to pick up the DP's, mistakenly or not...

Looking at the trip in VIPS, there is no way to determine that those DPs were picked up in AFB! It could have been MU or DFT for all we know. Regardless of what status he flew it in, he did it VOLUNTARILY which, as Tony said, hurts the DP process and shows poor support for the SIG by the MEC!
