For the foreign guys that may be unaware, US Airways is furloughing 175 from the "west" and 125 from the "east". That would leave around 950 on the east that were not on property at the time of the merger, while the west side is furloughing pilots who brought jobs to the merger.

Also of note, it is rumored that the east has upgraded 400 since the merger while the west has upgraded 39. And AWA was the acquiring carrier!

Not that I'd have any first hand knowledge of this of course

Talk about a "windfall" for the east. One foot on the banana peel and the other in the grave and they decertify the union and throw the AWA guys under the bus.

Lots of integrity. And yes, it did start with ALPA National, but has been consummated by USAPA.

That's ten posts I believe... and will check that PM. Cheers.
