          Item 5.  Other Events

               US Airways Group, Inc. ("US Airways Group") recently
          exercised its  right to commence a procedure to value
          Shuttle, Inc. ("Shuttle"), the owner of the US Airways
          Shuttle, in accordance with standards set forth in the
          agreement between US Airways Group, lenders to the
          shuttle and stockholders of the Shuttle.  Following the
          establishment of such value, US Airways Group has an
          option to purchase the Shuttle at the established value. 
          If US Airways Group declines to purchase the Shuttle, US
          Airways Group will continue to have a right of first
          refusal with respect to a purchase of the stock or assets
          of the Shuttle.  Initiation of the valuation procedure
          does not represent a commitment by US Airways Group to
          purchase the Shuttle and there can be no assurance that
          any such purchase will occur.  Any decision by US Airways
          Group to purchase the Shuttle either through the
          valuation procedure or the right of first refusal will be
          made based on price and related business considerations.
