Sure, probies would have to show up to work but their would be no CA's to fly with.... Only a couple mgmt pilots (CA's) would risk a "black list" knowing that if the strike puts the company "out" their chances of being hired anywhere would drop to "0".
Enlighten me, in which case I may be ignorant, but why would probationary pilots have to show up to work in the case of a strike? It's still the same union, probationary or not.
...or maybe I read your post wrong.
