"Airplanes are like teenagers. You have to know them to fix them," Boyd said. "In the long run, you can fix them cheaper in-house. TWU has worked with the company in the past to reduce costs. You don't want to mess with an asset like that."

"Lufthansa Technik was a spinoff of Lufthansa Airlines," Lesperance said, "and now they're more profitable than the airline."
