I may be wrong, but knowing a thing or 2 about corporate America & pressure tactics, What I read from this is .......
"The Orange stickers on the flight bags will be seen by the Chief Pilot who talks to management & other chief pilots"
The point is not to Halt the system, the threat that it could bring the system to a Halt, even for 2 hours, without the pilots taking to the picket lines, is what would scare the Topp Brass in Management & that scare would cause them to ask them to call the union leaders & pilots to the table, is what they would like to achieve. OR executing this 2 hour stall in the system one time & the threat of having it again on a regular basis would get the managements to the table......
The voice will be heard across the country.....
But I could be wrong..... I am still at a point where I am not even considered a newbee YET...
