When would a strike be possible? I may go to work for Mesa or worse, but I ain't crossing a picket line.
Outstanding! In the midst of all of the blah blah about "my sub par pay is better than your sub-er par pay", "my fatigue-inducing schedule is better than your slightly more fatiguing schedule", etc, it is a relief to hear some real solidarity.
The MAG MEC is working hard on significant contract improvements. They face an uphill fight dealing with a very tightwad company during a very labor-hostile period for our nation.
I think a strike is unlikely because I do not think the current president will allow one to occur under the LRA. If I remember correctly, when another airline strike was looming, the White House stated that if the pilots struck, their FAA certificates would be revoked.
