We're in the land of "IF" but if it were to happen then those pilots could actually be arrested and yes the airline would be shut down until pilots returned to work.
No real progress can be made in the amount of power each side has until the RLA is amended and a real threat of a strike is put back on the table. Not after 4-5 years of negotiations but after 6-9 months.
