A few folks asked that I repost sites to the court handling the U case. Sooo... here they are.
U.S. Bankruptcy Court, Virginia, Eastern District:
US Courts
[Scot-For some reason while trying to edit a hyperlink, it combines both of these into one, so I will add the Docket hyperlink as a separate post in the following thread.]
Currently, we're up to 231 items on the docket. The most recent activity is from the IAM:
Filed August 26, 2002: Notice of Hearing (Related Document(s)230) filed by Donald F. King of Odin, Feldman & Pittleman on behalf of International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers, AFL-CIO. Hearing to be held on 9/5/2002 at 09:30 AM at Judge Mitchell's Courtroom, 200 South Washington Street, 2nd Floor, Courtroom I, Alexandria, VA (King, Donald)

Of particular interest to the CWA folks:

(Attachments: # 1 Exhibit(s))(Boehm, Sarah)
(I suspect these are aimed at USAirways trying to show they're bargaining in good faith, and the CWA and IAM aren't).
====== Now... for the incredibly weird, these intriguing motions:
Item 208 filed 8/23/02 -- Motion for 2004 Examination of Debtor by U.S. Trustee to Investigate Stockholder/Employee Allegations of Fraud and Misconduct Performed by Members of Top Management, Independently or in Conjunction with Certain Members of the IAM, as filed with the U.S. Trustee by Said Stockholder/Employee filed by pro se Richard L. Sweet. (Bolen, Clarence)
Item 211 filed 8/23/02 -- Notice and Objection To Debtor's Motion For Scheduling Order To Establish Notice Procedures, Briefing Schedule And Hearing Date Regarding Debtors' Conditional Applications For Relief Under 11 U.S.C. 1113 If Voluntary Modifications To Collective Bargaining Agreements Cannot Be Reached, Until After the 2004 Examination And Investigation Into The Evidence Submitted To The U.S. Trustee For Allegations Of Fraud And The Allegations That Chairman Wolf Misled Employee Stockholders To Buy Shares Immediately After 9/11 Promising That US Airways Would Break Even In April 2002, And Later Withdrawing More Money From The Company Himself While He Laid Off Even More Employees And The Company Continued To Be More And More In The Red And Also On The Basis That Debtor "Found" An Extra $9 Billion In Debt Post Filing Petition, So The Court Has All Information From All Parties And Just The Debtor's Views, Which Could Be To The Detriment Of Creditors (Related Document(s)47) filed by pro se Richard L. Sweet. (Bolen, Clarence)
==== Not only is this one hellacious title for a motion... note the petitioner is filing pro se. I point this out to you because the intriguing Mr. Sweet follows up his motions with this one:
Item 207 filed 8/23/02 -- Emergency Motion for Protective Order and Restraining Order and for Certain Addresses to be held Confidential for Fear of Bodily or Deadly Harm filed by pro se Richard L. Sweet. (Bolen, Clarence)
==== and an implied accusation of collusion between the company and the IAM:
Item 208 filed 8/23/02 -- Motion for 2004 Examination of Debtor by U.S. Trustee to Investigate Stockholder/Employee Allegations of Fraud and Misconduct Performed by Members of Top Management, Independently or in Conjunction with Certain Members of the IAM, as filed with the U.S. Trustee by Said Stockholder/Employee filed by pro se Richard L.

As Alice would say, "Curiouser and curiouser!"
