US Airways takes its turn at big job, capacity cuts

US Airways is the latest to announce big cuts in flights and people, plus matching the $15 American fee for the first checked bag. Read the basic AP story here. Been on the road today so I'm just catching up, and more details will have to come in the next few days. In case you haven't heard yet, the airline industry is facing a full-blown catastrophe because of fuel costs. We'll catch you up on some of the dire predictions that are coming out on a regular basis. Stand by.
