Regardless of the otherworldly nature of the proposition or the slim chance of its implementation, this isn’t about manipulation of AOCs, who insures what, maintaining pilot currency, regulatory actions or anything of such mundane nature.
It’s about a plan to form a cadre of pilots to step forward and replace strikers (a rather bold move)…and the several airlines who have allegedly signed contracts to participate in said plan.
Perhaps Mr. Ziemelis is just blowing smoke; perhaps he’s not. The valuable info would be knowing which airlines so readily joined the effort. Would that influence one’s choice of potential employers ?
Privacy is an illusion. If “…several…large carriers…” have signed on to the plan, someone knows who they are.
And they should be revealed.
