Anyone know the reasons behind the Piedmont mechanic's walk-out that occurred this morning?

All the "Where does it belong" is well and good - I just want to know what happened and why. I haven't seen any media reports - anyone know?

MOD NOTE

The topic is appropriate for this board.

Thank you

Last time I looked Piedmont was a wholly owned sub of US, so this would seem to be the appropriate forum.

Heck, usually a certain poster is allowed to post anything relating to "US Airways business partners" in here.

Secondhand information only.

The PDT mechanics in SBY walked off the job yesterday. They may be back on the job today. I have no confirmation either way. I also do not know if it was just the SBY mechs, or whether ROA and MDT walked as well. I believe it was just SBY.

They have been in negotiations for quite some time with zero progress.
