[QUOTE="hoser, post: 119008, member: 6357"] One of my friends was an aircraft mechanic with NWA in MSP. All the mechanics were approached by a union called the AMFA, whose objective was to take over IAM. And the mechanics bought it. Only that the AMFA represents aircraft mechanics ($60/hr) right down to aircraft groomers ($6/hr). A few years later, the AMFA took it upon themselves to take on bankrupt NWA. They called a strike and said no one could replace them. NWA called their bluff and had replacements a week later. That strike is at day 393 effective 18 September 2006. And they will not relent that they lost. Moral of the story: be careful of rogue unions. [/QUOTE]
