with a fleet of 23 E190s in their own house, I just can't see how it would be economical to outsource them when you look at how much they pay their own pilots on the E190. Remember RAH would want to make a guaranteed profit. Why would US Airways not just stick in house and keep the profits to themselves?
Especialy when US Airways rates are lower.
