Airline Strike Still Planned
In Washington, Labor Secretary Goldberg presided over renewed talks aimed at stopping a 2 p.m. EDT walkout by Trans World Airlines flight engineers. The engineers, joined by the Flight Engineers and Pilots associations, warned the strike would proceed unless mediation produces a deal. The dispute centers on whether a pilot or engineer should occupy the third cockpit seat. A separate strike threat against American Airlines by the TWU, representing 10 000 ground workers, could be delayed by the Railway Labor Act's fact finding process.
