Court Rules against AFA at NW

Northwest's flight attendants, represented by the Association of Flight Attendants, have protested strongly against the airline's cuts, but were barred from striking by a federal appeals court last month.

Before NWA/AFA, self-help after abrogation was considered grey area.

Once it was upheld on appeal, it became case law & precedent. Anyone who tells you differently is sadly uninformed on the legal process...

Forget self help, against the law and case history backs that up. Negotiation does begin again in the vacuum of no agreement. Case history and RLA make it so. Infuriating that some spread bad info. We will live with the imposed ageement in the interim.
