I'm a realist and know that flight ops management doesn't really want to hear what we have to say, but there is a structural failure in the corporation in regard to Flt Ops, Inflt, and ACS. Theoretically we have the same goals ... theoretically. The problem is that in the real world there are gross disconnects.

These are not new problems, and there are solutions to them, just overlooked solutions. IMO if they all came under the same department, we could solve a great deal of the issues. Right now it is easy for co-equal managers to blow off their counterparts in other departments.
