Those pilots and a decent few people are not union machinists, It needs minimal staff to run the last tests. If the plane passes, it get shipped. That backlog is only like 50 planes deep. Its gonna run out soon and that's when it starts hurting them because they need that backlog to maintain steady inflow especially since they are far behind in projected profits for the year. Give it another week and they will run out of planes. 5 more weeks and they cave and give at least 40% wages, and a ton of other benefits (probably not the pension but we will see, its something EVERYONBE wants, that I know personally).

      No companies simply give raises and pensions. Rather, wage increases and pensions are always by predicated by demands by labor.

    Boeing was already losing money (no profit) before the strike. Look at the financial statistics and you see a lot of negative numbers. The book value of the stock is negative $29.20 per share. Debt is nearly $60 billion. General Motors solved problems in 2009 through Chapter 11 bankruptcy. Shareholders were wiped out. GM issued new shares when it came out of bankruptcy.
