During this period 3400 of 4200 EAL pilots went out on sympathy strike along with the flight attendants represented by the Transportation Workers Union (TWU), both of whom voted to honor the International Association of Machinists (IAM) strike of Eastern Airlines. The Herndon EAL Strike Center Records focus on the records of EAL Council 142 located in Herndon, VA, but also include EAL wide communications. The records are made up mainly of the daily fax messages sent to each EAL strike center every day for strike coordinators, and pilots and their families. The updates included information on strike developments, negotiations, media coverage, and research to counter company information. They also provided information about benefits, family awareness blocks, and writings to keep morale up. In addition there is information on Operation Love Song, the IAM/ALPA/TWU travel agent program, MEC updates, and strike/picket information and procedures. Also included are pilot letters, writings, songs and poetry, and cartoons created during the strike. </p> https://reuther.wayne.edu/node/10858#comments Air Line Pilots Association Air safety Airline pilots Airlines--Collective bargaining Airlines--Employees Airlines--Management Airlines--Mergers--United States Airlines--Safety regulations Airlines--Strikes and lockouts Airlines—Safety measures Continental Airlines Eastern Airlines Federal Aviation Administration Flight attendants--Labor unions--United States National Mediation Board (U.
