You must be talking about aerospace machinists. Construction workers are not unskilled. At least, nobody who understands construction work believes that.

Interestingly though.....we have an aerospace company right here in Seattle. Their new plastic airplane is behind schedule and continuing to fall further behind. The reason? Sit down for this. The company had decided to farm out the fabriciation of many sub-parts. To non-union fabricators. Those non-union fabricators failed to deliver.
