Actually, I'd venture to say it's the other way around. While a.net might have its fair share of airline geeks and enthusiasts, there's also of plenty of people that work in the industry that share their know-how and gossip there.
Flyertalk has a more mature poster base, but you see less people from the airline biz posting here because they are more likely to be viewed with animosity vs airliners.net.
Recent "rumors" like DTW-HKG getting dropped were posted by people in a.net first.
