The company's "last, best offer" to the mechanics eliminated something like 40% of the mechanic jobs, so AMFA walked out. Management had replacement mechanics waiting, and ALPA didn't support the strike (none of the other unions either). The company barely missed a beat. This all happened in the year or so prior to the bankruptcy filing.
