I do find them entertaining, worthy of reading, and occasionally enlightening. But I also think that the mindset you find here truly does not reflect the average line pilot--for good and bad. If you were to take the pulse of the various forums after every TA that has been reached in the internet era, you would think that every one would go down in flames with overwhelming NO votes. In fact at DAL we have never NOT ratified a TA!

I'm not even saying that is a good thing either--there are at least two TAs that I believe we should have shot down, if not more. But that doesn't change the fact that the typical line pilot tends to vote yes more than the typical message board posting pilot.
