I'm not well versed in this part of collective bargaining, maybe you can shed some light on this.
The Comair pilots went on strike for 81 days before they got a TA, but they still remained on strike. The pilots ratified the TA on the 89th day which ended the strike. However, I don't want our union to model their strategies based on what Comair pilots did.
