latest news:

The spanish minister for domestic affairs declared a 2 week state-of-alert, so all strikers could be sent to military court if they don't return to their jobs. First time since Franco that the law is used - nice to see some return to the fascist legacy
An unnumbered amount of workers returned to their job.

Sounds like they are on the Regan PATCO policy. Having done some flying back then I can tell you the military controllers and the management folks are just as capable as any union force. PATCO was the epitome of an overplayed hand, although many were hired back at greatly reduced salaries.
