Default USAir - Leverage due to AA Bankruptcy?

It would seem to me that the pilots at USAir/AWA would now potentially get a fire under their butts to resolve something since there will definitely be a small window to make a deal with AA before or after they emerge from Bankruptcy.

Has anyone heard any about any movement at USAir regarding the stagnation that's been going on since 2005. I imagine no investors are going to fund a NEW merger with USAir before they've completed the old one from 7 years ago.

It's a lot more quiet than I thought regarding this. It would seem like a smart thing for them to throw a decent contract at their pilots to try and heal some wounds and give investors some "good faith" that they can resolve their issues.

Just wondering if the management thinks they can do jack squat with their "crap sandwich" or if they've made some indication they need some closure soon if they want to cut a deal with AA.
