What exactly makes you think there will be a release to strike? Could it be the 7 years of mediation without getting close to one? The nmb will never release an airline if republics size. They dont hide that fact.

The alternative is to let the airline shrink and die. BB won't give you what you deserve and I think the pilot group has had enough of his crap. A strike is a temporary interruption in service. Liquidation is permanent. Stand your ground guys. The fact that his highness blames everyone but himself for this mess proves he is unfit to run the company. Hopefully the shareholders see that.

If BB wants to impose a contract on you then he would need to be released as well. Works both ways. Either way you would be free for self help.

I don't think you understand how collective bargaining under the RLA works.

So to be clear, you are saying that the company can only impose a contract in bankruptcy. Is that what you are saying?

Oh you're funny. Do some research on the railway labor act. You'll find that your hands are pretty much tied. Also the only way they can impose a contract on you is through bankruptcy. And even then it has to go through the bankruptcy judge. This has happened at least three times during this last decade. It's not that hard to look up the specifics

You sir are wrong. The only thing you are right about is that it is not that hard to look up. I'll direct you to American Airlines' decision to impose a new contract on flight attendants in 1993 after the 30 day cooling off period ended. Prior to a strike.

Release - Determination by the NMB that parties are at impasse and should be released to strike, impose final offer or otherwise engage in self help.
