Thanks for the information. I take it you are an America West pilot. From some research I did today, it appears America West sends their Airbus planes to Aeroman but the 757's go to Timco in Macon, GA. Timco also has a facility in Goodyear, AZ. Timco also does work for United. I was NOT pleased to learn that the Timco facility in NC was raided about one year ago for hiring a few illegal aliens who also had lied about their FAA licenses. There was also a story about a United plane that had a panel blow off leaving the NC facility because it was not screwed down. Were you led to believe America West is only serviced by Aeroman? What do your colleagues think about Timco?

Pilotpip, who did work on Valujet 592?
