Item 5. Other Events

     As previously disclosed, US Airways, Inc. ("US Airways") has 
been in discussions with The Boeing Company ("Boeing") and Rolls 
Royce Plc concerning certain agreements to purchase eight 757-200 
aircraft and 40 737-300 aircraft. On September 11, 1997, Boeing 
filed suit against US Airways in the Superior Court of the State 
of Washington for King County alleging, among other things, that 
US Airways had breached these aircraft purchase agreements. The 
lawsuit seeks, among other things, monetary damages in an 
unspecified amount. 

     US Airways intends vigorously to defend the Boeing lawsuit. 
US Airways cannot predict the outcome of the lawsuit or whether 
US Airways' financial condition or results of operations may be 
materially affected as a result of the lawsuit.
