Generally speaking....airline managements don't give a darn what pilots think...they are paid to drive the bus, then go home.
Suits me fine.
And yes, I'm in management presently, and I really don't care what the pilots think, as long as they do the job for which they are paid....and oddly enough, they do.
Same same when I was a regular line pilot.
Now, if the pilots (as a group) want to buy a part of the company, then it is entirely reasonable that the pilots (again, as a group) would/should have a say in day to day operations....future planning as well.
Having said this, perhaps it's best if the pilots don't have much to say about future planning, as many of these same pilots have gone through a couple of wives already....
