Nwa Mechanics Strike

[MCI transplant]

It was an L1011 from MIA to SJU and it was regular mechanics that left the O rings out. This incident happened well before the IAM strike at EAL.

I agree 100% with what you're implying here, but you used a bad example. DTW-LGW uses a DC-10. Even with the best AMT's around keeping them going, they're not exactly reliable.

These (DC-10) flights -while rarely cancelled-often take huge delays for technical problems.

 

[keeptheodds]

You guys act like delayed flights are unusual. If a flight crew is late we get blamed, if there is a thunderhead at the end of the runway with wind shear we get blamed, if a part breaks under normal use and the aircraft is grounded we get blamed. I here there is 1900 of us deployed through out Northwest. Northwest originally wanted about 3000 to pull this off. There are 4500 of you guys and we are only a couple of percentage points behind you. The coffee has been brewed and is being served. You better wake up or you’re going to miss out.

Yea and in the 4500 they did all the over haul work as well as the line. You guys cannot keep up just doing the line work.

You act like SCABS arent unusual.

BTW, what shift do you work? You seem to be on here all day and night. Do they let you post from work?

Why of course I do, this is really a gravy job. Oh we get busy sometimes and you wonder if its ever going to end but once the aircraft is pushed back everything is cool again. I got to hide out because I don’t know how NW would take to these posts. Every now and then I here the guys speculating on who KTO is. I just keep my mouth shut. We don’t have a set lunch so you eat when ever. We work 12 to 16 hour shifts so there is lots of breaks. You guys have done this job before right?

 

[sentrido]

NO, I havent done a SCAB job before, SCABBY McSCABBY SCAB.
So you post while on the clock? Wow, a SCAB that even rips off the company that hired em. Well, thats what you get when you hire a SCAB.

You act like I'm a company man. I'm sure the few pennies I make while making these posts wont even show up on the bean counters tickets. Most of my post are done when I'm off then most of the remainder is during lunch and breaks some are on the clock but very few and that is during a slow time.
