While we will always bargain in good faith, we encourage every bargaining unit member to begin preparing for the possibility of a strike in the next round of negotiations with Textron Aviation, scheduled for 2029. Taking proactive steps now can help ensure financial stability and peace of mind, no matter what happens.
