wild-cat strikes went out with Maggie in the 80's/90's. Legally you wouldn't have a leg to stand on if you decided not to cross ATCOs picket lines, if and when it happens. If ATSAs decide to strike I would go to work, but as normal(with staff shortage and what-not) would insist on working with an 'A' as part of the team.

I suspect this would mean working with the small minority of ATSAs that come to work or T&D ATCOs trained to do the job. ATCOs could also work as an 'A' which would provide a very limited service, not just to do with numbers but a lack of knowledge in how to work the system and apart from the ATSAs who would work on flight plans?

I hope you all stick to your guns, and next time you're told "sorry that's all there is." you won't be so naive.
