To be pedantic, they landed at the airport. They just didn't land on the runway...

I'm a C5'er and am very tempted to let our MEC know I'll be very unhappy if we give up anything to survive. Our contract is bad enough (and worse when the LOA expires), and I'll be damned if I save my job by selling out the industry. I can't force the company to give us something new but I can refuse to give up what we already have.
