The mechanics stood up to the judge and voted against their portion of the $2.5B of concessions and the judge imposed and additional 1% pay cut on them to make a point.
Wow, a strike vote. Like the 99% one United did before voting for the UPA 66% yes? American didn't go Chapter 11 until 2011 with $4B in the bank. There was no industry-wide downturn at the time. A completely different story.

I can always tell when I'm arguing with someone from the bottom half of their high school class
Short remarks with no substance and lots of inference. You really want to debate this let's take it to a new thread and start with a verifiable bio that shows your college degrees and grades.

Aloha Airlines emerged from Chapter 11 in February 2006 and ceased operations just two years later. What a great example of how to expertly use leverage. I would be interested to read the HBS case study on this remarkable labor tactic.
