Let's just cut the BS. PO MEC didn't give a hoot about struck cargo. They just wanted to hurt AAWH.
Day one of the strike, Polar CM had accomplished what they wanted, Polar shut down. No Polar planes, no Polar cargo. Yes, there was cargo that Polar MAY have hauled, depending on the freight forwarder. Just like all the passenger carriers fly the struck carriers passengers.
So with Polar shut down, AAWH didn't shut down after seven days, like Polariods hoped. Next step, get Atlas to VIOLATE their contract and do an illegal job action. That didn't work, company found ways around Polars pickets. Why, because pickets were designed for FIXED locations of work. Factories, office buildings, ect. Not entire airports. Northwest pilots walk by ther mechanics pickets all day, no Scabs because they are not supporting the mechanics. Atlas was flying Atlas's planes...simple. If any names that were involed in your roving road rage pickets make a list, ALPA is lost to studitity.
Note thru this, no pickets of Northwest, FedEX, Kallita, or Southern. Hell, UPS pilots stay at the Marriott. No hassle for them. All flying cargo out of ICN, HKG, NRT, and PVG. All Polar ports. Polar didn't care. Why, because they had to hurt AAWH, period.
So admit it, stuck cargo was just an excuse. AAWH was the target and you had to make Atlas an issue or you were toast.
