Do you remember the big Continental strike against Lorenzo (1982)...?
Well, these were ALPA, and many resigned CAL...
Good boys, these ALPA members...

But interesting detail -
Just a few months after the "Lorenzo" strike, Qantas in Australia had a big strike too (OZ Mates, help me for the details) - This was the start of the exodus of Aussies to the Asian carriers, such as Singapore, Cathay, Malaysian etc...
Did you know that many of the CAL boys (good ALPA members) went to work for Qantas...? They striked against "scabs" and Lorenzo boys in the USA, but they did not fail to be "scabs" theirselves in Sydney...

No need to say that Yanks were loved by Aussie pilots back then...
