Part of the raison d'être of unions is to find fault with management. These are the same people who ridiculed Bob Crandall when he was in charge (IIRC they nicknamed him "Fang"), then, a little while after the merger that they supported went into effect, openly longed for the good old days under Crandall. The union will never say that it thinks that current management is doing a great job. It can't.

Speaking of which, I'd love to have Crandall back at the helm. He understood how to run an airline.
