I kind of like the crew leasing business model, one doesn't work one minute past the contract due date without a new agreement in place and the salary rates seem to hold better over the entire market.

Although I realize that it is only better when there is high demand and short supply:D

Airline employees need to talk to the New York transit workers who flipped a big middle finger to the Taylor Law (which prohibits New York public employees from striking) and a state supreme court justice and walked off the job.

if the company will go out of business it doesn't deserve to be in business. if the government won't allow it then the government is against its labor force.

The current administration is unabashedly anti-labor. If airline pilots have a weakness it's supporting politicians who don't support us.
 
What did Clinton do to change the RLA during his 8 years?

Get rid of RLA isn't going to make any difference, please meet Taft-Hartley. Even given free reign to strike as long as you wanted isn't going to make a difference for the first couple of airlines. Though once 2-3 go bust from strikes it will no doubt empower the 30% of pilots still working to gain better wages. The airline industry suffers from an over supply of pilots which is what keeps wages low, nothing else.

Unionism was not built on legal actions. Unionism was legalized as a measure to contain unions. And it has worked.

Since we are so legitimate we are are now powerless and as corrupt as the government. I don't want law abiding union leaders. They produce nothing.
 
not trying to flame. the boeing machinists have more leverage than just about anyone in aviation with the exception of airbus.
