US Airways will finally shut the doors on regional jet unit MidAtlantic Airways in late May, resulting in job losses for 78 local airline employees and 368 statewide.
The layoffs in Pittsburgh and Philadelphia could begin on May 28 or as many as 14 days later, according to a letter US Airways sent to the state Department of Labor and Industry. The job losses will add to more than 9,000 eliminated locally since the 9/11 terrorist attacks.
