Greetings:

I apologize for posting in this forum since I am not a pilot but I'm not sure where else to turn at this point.

I purchased some tickets to hawaii for my family with America West only to learn that they are using Aeroman Taca in El Salvador for major repairs. This topic has raised quite a stir on the internet on several reputable sites such as the Washington Post. Other sites such as Aviation Today or Aviation Now seem to indicate Aeroman is indeed a reputable facility - despite the third world location.

I was wondering, if per chance, an America West pilot or someone else might comment on this topic. I have been worried sick the past few days on whether we should proceed with this trip.

Thank you in advance.
