NWA.com is mum but weather.com flight tracker is showing the details if you want to look it up by flight number or just routing.

At Eastern, they had non-union insiders feeding info to striking members!

At my (west coast) station, everything is running more or less on time...so far. The real test (I think) will be when both ETOPS flights get ready to go.

As the day wears on you will know what is really going and what isn't. All companies experiencing a strike will release false information to try to wear down the strikers resolve and to keep the flying public calm.

Are the scabs on the job? Did the scabs turnout like management had planned?

With a pilot or flight attendant strike, the effects are immediate. How about the mechanic strike? When should we begin seeing the effects?

Thanks


p.s. I hope you guys/gals are able to keep a list of every single scab name and share it with the unions at the other airlines!!!

I completely agree. My info came from the guys that are actually at work (on the ramp), but it's still early out here. Like I mentioned a few posts up, IMO, the true test(s) will come as the day wears on, and the Trans-Pacific flights get ready to go.

Will we only start to see the effects once aircraft start to break? Why are the trans-pacific flights a test? Does a certified mechanic need to touch them before each flight?

Sorry for my ignorance...just interested?

You can bet the high-profile int'l flights will be the ones management will work themselves if necessary to convince the world that NW is ok. It's the domestic operation where problems will appear.

I haven't seen anything that says that AMFA is even slightly slowing down NW's operation or even creating headaches as NW's operation continues. Anyone with knowledge otherwise, please post it.

These are the ones that the mgmt./Maintenance controllers have been focusing on all week in my station.

AirwAr-- All ETOPS aircraft have to be checked by at least 2 AMT's prior to flight (maybe someone else on here can provide more specifics?).

For what? When we at U went on strike in 92, several mechanics at some stations crossed. There was a lot of talk and nothing was done about it. After a couple of months and everybody is back at work, things are forotten.
