those 11.000 controllers made up nearly 100% of the controllers in the country. There are roughly 80,000 commercial airline pilots of which we make up about 15% of the workforce and serve about 25% of the capacity. Rough numbers but in the ballpark.

I'm not saying it wouldn't be disruptive, but it wouldn't be Armegedon either.

So your plan is an illegal job action, which has failed miserably in the past, got it. You going to run for office and bring us all restoration with your plan?
