I have not believed any statement from AWAC or US Airways management. They are in it for themselves for the highest profit and will S&^T on any pilot group.. AWAC, PDT, PSA.. It is all the same. Cheap labor is thee goal and making it even cheaper is the #1 deal.

AWAC ownership has done a great job on the books and balancesheet, but forgot about the employee's who work planes. That is the crappy part, their greed has made this a "typical" regional to work for. It used to be an outstanding place and worth sticking around. Now- Not so much
