It's rough out there!
That is exactly what happened. The PFAA were forcred to train their own "replacement" workers on actual "IOE" flights. If they refused to train them they were disiplined. NWA management has 1200 scab fa's waiting to do exactly what they did to the mechanics. Nice place huh?
Maybe it's called survival! Read the Deli's posts. He is correct in that the mechanics are demanding way more than NWA can deliver in todays environment. The Union needed to do their research instead of the total conspiracy theory route. ALPA did their homework and tried to help the AMFA and the PFAA. The AMFA is natorious for their hard tactics that usually leads to backpeddaling by Uninion Officials. I dont think their leadership are the brightest crayons in the box. As for the $5.00 an hour Asian workers, I am being told that is simply not the case, but logistically it seems plausible.
By the way, what are those so called "1200 fa scabs" doing now. Are they on the payroll? Were they trained, received background checks, drug testing, uniforms, etc., and they just sitting at home waiting for the call? Let us know, please.
