So what happens when the judge nullifies the contract via 1113?
I can think of, oh, about 57 or so things to do to apply economic pressure.
Everyone is wailing about the fact that under the RLA, an organized strike is out. So what? You don't need a strike to rattle their cage. About the only caveat is that any perceived job action must be grassroots. The union cannot say something like "Everyone write a lot of **** up." That exposes the APA to the wrath of the courts, bought and paid for by AMR. No doubt the courts and company will also scream bloody murder about "status quo" and the like.
The key is to have the backing of the FAR's and the company's own operating rules.
