How is it possible that they haven't worked out that if there are 100% flights flying next time they decide to stop working, they have lost. If the object of a strike is to cause disruption and they can't cause that disruption then the strike is next to useless (except for the Bedfont football ground owners who do rather well out of it) and they might as well give up.
This is beginning to remind me of a scene from Monty Python's " Quest for the Holy Grail"....Where the Black Knight still thinks he can win the sword fight even when missing most of his limbs.
