NWA Pilots and Flight Attendants poised to strike if bankruptcy judge imposes paycuts

The pilots and flight attendants unions have said they will strike if a bankruptcy judge imposes a paycut as part of the proceedings. NWA says that a strike would be illegal during a bankruptcy and filed legal motions to prevent a strike should the union and airline fail to come to an agreement. Airline experts say unlike the mechanics strike the airline could not sustain a strike by the pilots. A pilots strike would likely put NWA out of business for good.
