Not true. Emery Worldwide, 13 DEC 2001 in just my personal experience. I'm sure there are others. The key is to stay in touch and stay united. Start a Skyway pilots' message board and
help each other out. A few of us have seen some little payout, but we are still fighting for the big one in the CA courts. You probably won't get what you deserve (I know regular eastern guys who got about 10 cents on the dollar) but if you stay together you will maximize what you can get.
