Reagan's tough talk was just that, talk, later in the week after he discovered that air traffic controllers weren't all that easy to replace, he quietly began hiring them back at almost twice the salary. Some tough guy eh? After all, would you fly on a plane knowing that underqualified novice air controllers were now on the job? Most people chose not to fly and that put even more pressure on Reagan to hire back the experienced people he'd just fired. To their credit, they refused to come back at the same pay.
