Not using our pilot-to-pilot means of discussing what/how/why we are unhappy about (failing to campaign) will not get us all pointed in the right direction or help the grass roots unite around the need for improvement.

Tamping down discontentment didn't help pilots during negotiations, it only served to buy the company additional time.
