If anyone on APC really thinks that what is written on these types of forums has any effect whatsoever on how management chooses their strategy then you’re some kind of dumb. The only thing they use these boards for is to seek TROs when idiots post job action propaganda as it serves for hard evidence in court.
Thinking that a handful of keyboard warriors who are the same cast of characters day in and day out moves the scale one way or the other in negotiations is just plain stupidity.
You’re being ignorant if you don’t think that forums aren’t used to gauge the pilot group’s sentiment by management. Also, let’s not forget about the management stooges on the SWAPA forum. One of them being buddies with Kuwitsky.
