I recall the QANTAS pilots in question didn't strike but worked a limiting schedule and then resigned en masse. That is a different ball game altogether.
Edited to say that of course it was not QANTAS pilots involved in the 1989 dispute, as correctly mentioned below. I posted in haste causing the error, I mean who doesn't think of QANTAS when the subject of Australian aviation comes up? Sorry.
