Sorry to burst your bubble there Snigs, but JF has been told several times, at Open Channel meetings, how the troops feel. It isn't news to him. However, he has been in the invidious position of wanting to fix the problem, but being unable to justify doing so whilst there were a thousand other fires that needed putting out.
Also, they do keep a pretty close eye on what is said on these forums. Surprised I haven't been fired...
It is often said that JF hates pilots. I don't think that is so, his focus has to be on making the company healthy, and then he can focus on other issues - but then those issues should be being looked after at fleet manager and Ops Director level for the most part. I know the Ops Director tries, but he is hamstrung by having to work to a budget. I personally think he gets a bad press, but I am sure few will share that view...

I'm intrigued, who do you mean?
