I hope so. Typical RLA stuff: The company violates the contract, and it takes years to resolve. By the time its resolved, Mesa could be insolvent, and Mokulele (now owned by RAH, I believe) could be the #2 inter-island carrier in Hawaii.

Meantime, AirTran's got a pilot terminated b/c he wore his uniform to drop his family off @ a circus sponsored by NPA on his way to work.

The company gets to sink the union's boat. The union can't fire back, but is left to negotiate for the pieces of the wreckage years later. Gotta' love the system.
