Two beautiful sunny days contributed to the success Two beautiful sunny days contributed to the success of the Take to the Skies AirFest hosted at the Mes-quite Metro Airport on May 26 - 27. The Memorial Weekend show offered a number of aviation related events including static displays, helicopters, skydiv-ers, powered parachutes, hang gliders and RC aircraft. An Aerobatic Racing Challenge, hot air balloons, and opportunities to meet the pilots along with music, a childrens area and food vendors added to the show’s festival atmosphere.

“The neat thing about today’s event is that it is the only event of its kind in the state,” said Event organizer

Irving’s strong cultural perspec-tives was put into sharp focus this past Sunday at the Marco Polo World Foundation’s annual DFW Dragon Boat, Kite and Lantern Festival, an Eastern festival dating back hundreds of years that was imported to our very western, de-veloping Irving in 2007. The event has steadily grown in popularity and participation and is now the largest Dragon Boat Festival in the country.

Although the festival has long since become an integral part of Irving’s culture, this year held new traditions with the institution of a scholarship program awarded to students for their dedication to pro-

moting intercultural understanding.Lake Carolyn in Las Colinas

was transformed into a cultural wonderland with colorful dragon-shaped boats criss-crossing the water, the delicious smell of exotic foods wafting through the air, and entertainment consisting of intri-cate, beautiful eastern dances with a pageantry and mystery somewhere between The Last Samurai and Mortal Kombat.

Local dojo, Lee’s White Leop-ard Kung Fu School, performed a “dragon dance,” in which ener-getic martial arts students leapt and shuffled their way around the stage in colorful dragon costumes that shook, slipped and slithered across

n Six 12-Gauge Flares: Six flares were found by officers at Milwau-kee (MKE).n Body Scanner Discoveries– There were seven incidents where drugs were found on passengers using imaging technology. Items were found everywhere from pockets to the groin area at LAX, ELM, SMF, OGG, PGD, CHS and TPA. Of-ficers are not looking for drugs, but finding these nonmetallic items in areas where explosives could also be hidden is a testament that the tech-nology works. In addition to these discoveries, there was also a passenger at An-chorage who attempted to sneak in a tube of toothpaste by placing it in her groin area. This was an attempt to get it through after officers had already caught it in her bag earlier. n No Smoking: Smoking has been banned on flights for quite some time, so please leave smoke gre-nades at home. A live M-18 smoke grenade was discovered in checked baggage at Las Vegas (LAS).n Concealed Knives: It’s one thing to forget that you had a knife in

your bag, but when you intention-ally conceal it, it raises eyebrows. Officers in Wilmington (ILM) found two knives a passenger tried to conceal in their suitcase: a pocket knife wrapped in a computer cable and a kitchen knife hidden inside the lining of the bag near the pull handle support.n Miscellaneous Prohibited Items - In addition to all of the other prohibited items, officers also found firearm components, realis-tic replica firearms, stun guns, brass knuckles, an extraordinary amount of knives, ammunition, and batons.

I hope that you enjoyed that piece last week on Women, and I wanted to continue to talk about how special Women are.

SPECIALTY – is defined as a special or distinctive quality, mark, state, or condition. An article or service particularly dealt in; manufactured, distinguishing, field of concentration, object of attention, special project,

In other words an item designed for a special use.

Women were special from the Beginning. The Role of Man was set, but God had to set the Role of the Women. After he created Her. Her main objective was to be a help to the man. Man needed something special in his life to complete, compliment, or

make his life better. That’s why the women was made.The Amplified Bible Said, in verse 22 of Chapter 2:

And the Rib - Why Did God Choose The Rib??Some quote theologian Matthew Henry by saying

that - God didn’t take a bone from man’s foot because he

didn’t want her to be man’s servant, or - from his head because God didn’t want her to be

man’s master, - but from his side so she would be his companion,

or, - the supposition that he took it from near Adam’s

heart as in reference to affection.- Well, this all sounds like a nice allegory, but there

is another reason why the rib was chosen. Will explain in the article next week

“I’ll see you in the terminals!”For more information, visit www.dfwchapel.org.

Convenient Financing/Most Insurance Accepted

By Phil CerroniWith the HP Byron Nelson Championship in town

this past week, one thing on every golf fan’s mind who is working on a budget is “How can I get cheap tick-ets?”

The answer is very simple: private sale. One does not need to look farther than a block from the entrance of the Las Colinas Four Seasons to see men sitting on a front lawn decorated with signs advertising the buying and selling of golf tickets.

Having heard stories about scalpers’ unsavory repu-tation, I decided it would be worthwhile to hear their point of view. As I walked across their lawn a car pulled up into the driveway and a transaction was quickly con-cluded. The driver, however, did not want his picture in the newspaper.

One misconception that was quickly cleared up was that these men are not scalpers.

“Scalpers get a bad name: they go out there and try to gouge the public. We don’t do that. We try to give the customer a deal – we’ll mark it up a little bit from what we bought it at, but keep it under face value,” Wade Bacon, a veteran ticket seller was quick to tell me.

One of his companions, Mark Martinez, came on strong in support of Wade’s statement.

“People get these tickets at a discount. They usually pay fifty percent.”

Men like Bacon and Martinez are able to provide this service to sports fans around the country because of gifted tickets. Businesses will give employees or cus-tomers tickets to the event. If the recipient does not want to go to the event, he can sell them to these en-trepreneurs.

Not only do these men provide a service to fans, but they have also helped the tournament in past years as well.

“Back in the day when Tiger came, they sold out; the tournament really needed us. Fans needed tickets and we were the only ones who had them,” Martinez said.

Regardless of whether a golf superstar is playing or not, these men carry on a healthy business every year for the tournament’s duration with about 150 people coming to them every day.

For these men, private ticket sales have been a way of life for over two decades.

“We’re all related, kind of like a band of gypsies,” Bacon said with a smile. And in true gypsy fashion, they have travelled around the country selling tickets at numerous events including NASCAR races, which he said, is a very different game.

“At NASCAR you’re with the public who’s on the inside of the track in the pit areas. You have to keep a low profile and not cause a scene.”

Bacon was very happy about the lifestyle.“You’re your own boss,” he said proudly. “You don’t

answer to nobody; you can make as much as you work.”Now that they are getting older, the money is not as

important to them now as it once was, however.“I’m sixty-six - I do it for the camaraderie,” Bacon

emphasized his age and hinting that this was going to be their last year.

But their interest in the Byron Nelson is not purely capitalistic. Martinez is a golf fan himself, “I played golf in college, and I go into the Byron every year at least one day.”

Bacon was indulgent with my naïve question of whether or not the police ever gave them trouble.

“We’re on private property, but you can’t walk into the street; you can’t sell on public property,” he replied.

A block away, the private security officers hired by the Byron Nelson were not so pleased with the naïve the question or the idea of scalpers or anyone who re-motely looked like one.

“The police will arrest them,” one of the guards who was sporting a grim expression told me.

Captain Jolley with the Irving Police Department was not as stony about either scalpers’ or police’ meth-ods for dealing with them.

“Scalpers are really a non-issue,” he said. “Since the Cowboy’s aren’t here, we don’t have those kinds of events.” Although scalpers may not have been an issue at the Byron Nelson, there were plenty of other press-ing matters, and our short interview ended with Jolley telling me that, contrary to the security guard’s belief, the police will not arrest scalpers.

“When people need a ticket, they know where to come,” Bacon said.

Private ticket sales an inseparable part of the Byron Nelson golf tournament

By Alice CanhamDid you head to Comic Con 2012 at Irving’s Con-

vention Center on May 19? How about those lines!? Facilities were beyond over-crowded, with masses of fanboys and civilians alike making the long trek from parking lots, only to find an intimidating queue sur-rounding the Center.

Dwayne, Valarie and Ashton Trevino of Irving were all united in their Comic Con obsession during this, their first experience with pop culture’s nirvana. A Stan Lee-seeking missile, they finally got what they came for: “His autograph!” Dwayne exclaimed, eyes shining. Add to that some toys and a visit with Kevin Conroy (voice of Fox TVs animated Batman) and it was almost enough to make the lines worthwhile.

“Getting in was a little disorganized,” he said. “We stood in line for hours. Hours.”

They returned on May 20 when things went more smoothly, and Dwayne thinks he knows why. The god-father of American comic book heroes and villains didn’t make it in that day.

“No Stan Lee – much smaller crowds,” he opined. “He’s just the best. He has his hand in everything from Marvel Comics, and I’m a big Captain America fan.”

Judging by the crowd inside, he was far from alone. Costumed superheroes were everywhere, sometimes making it hard to move or to stop moving. A few were

bonafide and authorized, but most were civilian vol-unteers.

“I am Silk Spectre from Watchmen,” said one yel-low-and-black clad brunette. In the real world, she might be known as Brittnee Lein from Lewisville. “I was like, hey, I have this awesome costume – might as well wear it around.” She estimated it takes thirty min-utes to apply makeup and wig. And as long as she was there anyway….”I got autographs from Kevin Conroy and Peter Mayhew [Chewbacca]. He was really awe-some.

“I wanted to meet Adam West [TV Batman from the 60s], but there were so many people in his line…maybe next time.”

Devin Kraft, for one, didn’t mind the lines. Man-ning his own booth for Cheshire Cat (billed as ‘deviant art’), this native of Roswell, NM was working on the cover for a graphic novel. “I’m selling a mix of prints and comics, and just meeting people since this is my first Con outing.

“I wasn’t into comics as a kid, but video games – that was like my gateway drug.

“I’m actually a filmmaker by trade, so what I love about comics is that you can get an idea out without having to worry about actors, explosions, permits, and paying for all that stuff. All the crazy, dangerous things

DFW Airport statement: Grass fireDFW Airport Department of Public Safety (DPS) fire units re-

sponded to a grass fire on the Airport’s far east side at 3:30 p.m. on May 25. Units from DFW Airport DPS worked alongside the Irving Fire Department to contain the grass fire. There was no impact to flight operations

The grass fire was reported just before 3:00 PM Friday afternoon in the vicinity of Valley View Lane and Carbon Road, just north of Walnut Hill Lane. The fire covered an area that includes portions of northwest Irving as well as DFW Airport property.

As a precaution, the FAA closed Runway 17-Left, which is one of DFW’s seven runways, while responding crews worked to control the fire. All flight operations were moved to DFW’s six available and open runways, and no flight delays were reported.

TSA sets cargo screening deadline for international inbound passenger aircraft

The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) announced May 16 it has set a deadline for passenger air carriers to conduct 100 percent cargo screening on international flights bound for the United States. Beginning Dec. 3, 2012, all cargo shipments loaded on passenger air-craft must undergo screening for explosives, fulfilling a requirement of the Implementing Recommendations of the 9/11 Commission Act.

TSA has worked closely with other governments, international or-ganizations, and industry partners to increase the security of air cargo without restricting the movement of goods and commerce. The screen-ing builds additional risk-based, intelligence-driven procedures into the prescreening process to determine screening protocols on a per-shipment basis. This process requires enhanced screening for shipments designated as higher risk, while lower risk shipments will undergo other physical screening protocols.

“Harmonizing security efforts with our international and industry partners is a vital step in securing the global supply chain,” said TSA Administrator John S. Pistole. “By making greater use of intelligence, TSA can strengthen screening processes and ensure the screening of all cargo shipments without impeding the flow of commerce.”

These risk-based security efforts are one aspect of the Administra-tion’s recently announced Global Supply-Chain Security initiative. Currently, all cargo on passenger aircraft- both domestic and interna-tional- departing U.S. airports undergoes screening. Domestically, car-go screening is conducted by air carriers or those voluntarily participat-ing in the Certified Cargo Screening Program, under strict regulatory oversight of TSA. TSA has more than 500 inspectors to ensure com-pliance with air cargo security regulations. In addition to its domestic workforce, TSA has more than 100 internationally-focused inspectors who assess security measures at applicable foreign airports.

TSA will continue to work to strengthen cargo security by putting more risk-based procedures into the screening process.

you want to do, you can put on the page. You want a gunfight in the Pentagon? You can do it.”

There’s an unbroken line of cre-ativity in comics and graphic nov-els – one that stretches back to the 1940s and pulp fiction’s heyday. That’s where Boyd Rowden of Aus-tin comes in.

“I specialize in vintage comics – and you wouldn’t believe how many people think that means the 1990s,” said Rowden, the wall behind his display reverently decorated in ex-amples within their protective My-lar sleeves.

“I do appraisals, so some people bring their comic books in and want to find out how valuable they are. I bought a collection of 50s and 60s books during this show.

“I used to teach school and this was my hobby – now it supplements my pension. Plus, it’s fun.”

Pointing at the wall behind him, he added, “Some of these are worth $50 – all the way up to $2,000.

“The most valuable pieces right now? That would be anything with The Avengers, because of the mov-ie. Those comic books are selling re-ally well.”

With an estimated crowd of double the expected 15,000, Dal-

las Comic Con 2012 also sold well. Presenters Official Pix Events/Sci Fi Expo may explore a location change for future Comic Cons. Meanwhile, look for a return to the area in October with another pro-duction, Fan Days.

Men in Black IIIRated: pG-13

Will Smith is back and once again makes that suit look good. Even if Men in Black III isn’t nearly as memo-rable as the orig-inal, it’s on par with the second film, and Will Smith delivers the same cocky

humor as before. It’s been a decade and fans are

more than ready for this one, and happily they won’t walk away angry

or disappointed.In this installment, Agent J

(Will Smith) has to travel back to the 1960’s to stop a psychotic, time jumping alien ( Jemaine Clement) from assassinating Agent K (Tom-my Lee Jones). While there, J also discovers a lot of history about the Men in Black and gains an under-standing of why Agent K is the way he is; dry and void of emotion.

A lot of things work in this mov-ie, the main one being Josh Bro-lin as the young Agent K. Brolin completely personifies Tommy Lee Jones’ mannerisms and dialogue. It is at times uncanny. This brings a lot of humor while adding an element to the film that would have been

lost had they simply altered Tommy Lee Jones with computer graphics.

Like the earlier films, Men in Black III does a decent job of in-corporating real life events into fictional scenarios. Things like the Apollo 11 moon launch are brought to life in a humorous story line.

Men in Black III is rated PG-13 for sci-fi action violence and brief suggestive content. The language is mild but prevalent, and the violence is on par with the first two films.

I give it 3.5 out of 5 sky jumps. It was exciting to see the team back together and have some of our questions answered. Though not a perfect film, definitely a solid kick-off to the summer.

FestivalContinued from Page 1

Tracy, an ethnically Chinese woman who grew up in Vietnam, appreciated that the event “took a piece of home and brought it here.”

Zach Pierce who recently moved his family to Irving was also very positive about the festival.

“We moved from Orlando and have had trouble finding free festi-vals that celebrate different cultures. We took it for granted in Florida, but they have been a little harder to find in Dallas,” Pierce said.

But he was no less pleased with the festival’s community impact than with its cultural significance.

“A free event makes you more willing to support local vendors,” he observed shrewdly.

Ke Bi, the festival’s chairman, was able to take a break from or-ganizing the many dragon boat teams in order to sit down and tell me that the races are definitely the highlight of the event, drawing lots of enthusiastic sportsmen and com-munity groups, many returning year after year. A significant number of these groups are corporations who sponsor their employees’ entrance in the races as a team building ex-ercise because “the key thing is you need to be in sync to win,” he said.

He made it very clear that the event was not just for adults, how-

ever, pointing out a young girl who was calling the paces during the team’s warm-up in preparation, herself, for calling the strokes dur-ing the race. Bi is currently working on extending the races beyond the yearly festival.

“We want to build a dragon boat club, and make it a year round pro-gram,” he explained enthusiastically about his plans for the Foundation’s

plans for deeper community in-volvement.

Many of the attendees seemed as interested in the outdoor nature of the festival as they were about its specifically Asian roots. It looks like this may be a step forward in the Marco Polo World Foundation’s mission “to create better under-standing and acceptance of diver-sity in the Metroplex community.”

ORBIS’s Flying Eye Hospital (FEH), the world’s only ophthal-mic surgical and training hospital with wings, touched down in Lan-zhou, China, on May 21 to conduct a program focused on building the skills of local eye care profession-als to address the leading causes of blindness in the region. The pro-gram is part of ORBIS’s continu-ous commitment to support ongo-ing in-country programs in China aimed at promoting skills, improv-ing eye health awareness and deliv-ering quality patient care.

This will be the 37th FEH pro-gram in China and the second time the plane visits Lanzhou. ORBIS has supported programs in Gansu for nearly ten years and its current active in-country project, “Chil-dren’s Vision in Gansu: Establish-ing a Comprehensive Childhood Vision Network,” aims to increase availability, accessibility and sus-tainability of pediatric services. Currently there are only 15 pedi-

atric ophthalmologists in the prov-ince serving a child population of over 5.5 million.

The need to expand and improve care is one of the many reasons that ORBIS continues to work closely with local partners to help improve the delivery of quality pediatric eye care services. In addition, ORBIS is working to strengthen the referral network at 13 county hospitals and the pediatric services at Gansu Re-habilitation Center Hospital.

“ORBIS and the FEH are hon-ored to be in Lanzhou,” said David M. Johnson, Director, ORBIS Fly-ing Eye Hospital. “This program provides ORBIS and our partners a great opportunity to continue to build the capacity and infra-structure of eye care in the region, specifically in the area of pediatric ophthalmology.”

Through a partnership with the Second Hospital of Lanzhou Uni-versity, the largest teaching hospital and eye center in the province, the

FEH will conduct training programs in ophthalmology, nursing, biomedi-cal technology and anesthesia.

The primary subspecialties of the program in Lanzhou are pedi-atric ophthalmology and the man-agement and treatment of child-hood blindness. The key concerns of rural and county level doctors will also be addressed and include glau-coma, cornea and external disease, and medical retina.

China accounts for 18 percent of the world’s blind and of the 1 mil-lion children suffering from blind-ness in Asia, approximately 400,000 live in China. At the national level, the major causes of blindness reflect global trends and include: cataract, corneal disease and glaucoma. Only about 50 percent of the estimated 22,000 eye doctors in China can perform cataract surgery and most surgically active ophthalmologists are disproportionately located and practicing in urban areas.

Debby Standefer. “Our mission is to encourage young adults to become involved in aviation. We try to have as many different types of airplanes and examples of aviation as we can, so that ev-eryone will find an interest in something. We have war birds, general aviation pilots, aerobat-ics, precision flying, radio controlled planes and even motorcycles. If it flies, we want to have it here. We try to have everything from balloons to NASA, so we run the gamut.

“We do a lot of smoke, flips, rolls and all type of aerobatic performances. Even the war birds don’t just do flybys, they do aerobatics.

“If young people are involved in aviation, they have got to study, they can’t get into trouble, they can’t do drugs and pilots are great mentors. Avia-tion contributes to a better young adult.

“There are tons of opportunities in aviation, because there are so many different aspects. It is not all about being a pilot. There are engineers, mechanics and all kinds of careers young people can get into.

“A lot of the people who have attended the show this weekend have never been to an air show. It is really thrilling to be able to give them that excitement.”

Jim Ross, a member of the Vought Aircraft Heritage Foundation and the wrangler/curator

for the foundation’s ½ Scale F4U corsair, showed the aircraft to air show visitors.

“This airplane has never flown,” Ross said. “Under the terms of the condition of donation it says that we don’t fly it and we don’t sell it. This was made by a builder in California. This plane had a history of weak landing gear, and he was nervous about it. That is probably why so few of these were sold.

“He put 17 years of labor into building it. He couldn’t sell it, so he ended up donating it to us for a tax write off.

“I don’t know how many of these are in exis-tence. They couldn’t have sold more than 10 of the kits. I know there is one down in south Texas that flies.

“People come by, they see the airplane, and they smile and look pleased. They often say that

this is their favorite airplane. Everybody loves the Corsair. It’s a feel good airplane.”

Visiting from California, Jose Albanil took his son to see the air show.

“My five year old son had never been to an air show, so I thought we would check it out,” Albanil said. “I’d like him to learn that planes can do more than you normally see them doing. He enjoys this stuff, and he took it in a little bit, but right now he’s not excited.

“The event is pretty cool and low key. It’s a nice day. I’m glad we came out.”

After searching Memorial Day events on the Internet, Emily Chen decided to attend.

“We enjoyed the show,” Chen said. “It was magnificent. I brought my mom. It was her first time to see an air show, and we are already plan-ning to come back next year.

“I liked it when the two planes were racing. It was a lot of fun. I had never seen anything like that in my life. It was very exciting. I also liked the motorcycles.”

Pilot Mike Allan and his wife Kitty keep their Cessna 310 at the Mesquite Metro Airport.

“My favorite part was the Mig,” Allan said. “You just don’t see that every day, and it’s a cool airplane. The micro jet was also very cool. And the kids loved the motorcycle stunt show.

“I hope the kids appreciate aviation a little bit more and realize how much fun it is. I hope they just had a good time. Now I hope they are tired.”

Delta Air Lines will begin taking delivery of Boeing 717 aircraft as early as 2013 upon rati-fication of a new tentative agreement covering Delta’s more than 12,000 pilots. The tentative agreement was approved on May 21 by the Mas-ter Executive Council (MEC) of the Delta Air Line Pilots Association (ALPA), and now will be presented to pilots for review and ratification through June 30.

The tentative agreement provides career growth opportunities as well as pay and benefits improvements for Delta pilots, while providing Delta productivity gains and additional aircraft flexibility, including an opportunity to accelerate its domestic fleet restructuring to provide a bet-ter customer travel experience.

If ratified, the agreement will accelerate Delta’s domestic fleet restructuring strategy. To this end, Delta has reached an agreement in principle with Southwest Airlines and Boe-ing to lease 88 Boeing 717 aircraft currently in service at Southwest subsidiary AirTran Airways that is conditioned upon pilot ratification of the tentative agreement. The aircraft will primarily replace inefficient 50-seat regional jets and some older DC-9 aircraft still in service, on a capacity-neutral basis.

The tentative agreement also provides Delta with additional flexibility to acquire up to 70

larger two-class, 76-seat regional jets as the Boe-ing 717 aircraft are delivered to Delta. Delta cur-rently operates 255 larger two-class regional jets; the fleet will be increased to 325 aircraft.

“These actions pave the way for us to restruc-ture and upgauge our domestic fleet, which will lower our costs, provide more pilot jobs and im-prove the onboard experience for our customers,” said Delta CEO Richard Anderson. “The addi-tion of the Boeing 717s, additional large regional jets and the planned replacement of 50-seat air-craft continue Delta’s commitment to operating an efficient, flexible domestic fleet that offers customers even more opportunities to upgrade to our First Class and Economy Comfort cabins.”

In addition to aircraft flexibility, the tentative agreement will provide for productivity enhance-ments as well as improvements to the total com-pensation package for Delta pilots, including in-creases to base pay. The agreement also provides for a modification of the profit sharing program for pilots so that it pays 10 percent of profits, compared with 15 percent today, on the first $2.5 billion of profits effective Jan. 1, 2013. The plan will continue to pay 20 percent of profits above $2.5 billion. A voluntary early retirement option recently offered to Delta’s other employee groups also will be available to Delta pilots upon ratifi-cation of the tentative agreement.

“Delta, our pilots and ALPA continue to ben-efit from a very constructive, proactive relation-ship, one that is unprecedented in our industry,” said Mike Campbell, executive vice president – Human Resources and Labor Relations. “This tentative agreement represents an investment in our pilots and our company as it gives Delta significant fleet flexibility, the ability to continue running a reliable operation for our customers, and a profitable enterprise for shareholders and for all Delta people. The fleet changes provided by this agreement, coupled with the productiv-ity and profit sharing changes, cover the invest-ments in our employees.

“We strongly support the Delta MEC’s en-dorsement and are optimistic that Delta pilots will ratify the tentative agreement,” Campbell said.

Pilots have approximately five weeks to re-view and ratify the tentative agreement. If ap-proved by the June 30 deadline, the agreement would take effect July 1, 2012. The agreement becomes amendable Dec. 31, 2015.

Negotiating committees for Delta and ALPA announced on May 15 that a tentative agree-ment had been reached. During the next several days the tentative agreement was reviewed and subsequently approved by the Delta MEC on May 21.

FUN AND GAMESUS Airways offersmore than $250,000in scholarships

Last week, 101 students were notified that they were recipients of more than $250,000 in scholarships from the US Airways Educa-tion Foundation. The foundation awards col-lege scholarships to children of US Airways employees.

More than 400 students applied for the $2,500 US Airways Education Foundation scholarships and a committee comprised of educators and community leaders carefully reviewed each application. Applicants were scored on academic achievement, leadership, awards and honors, community service and volunteerism, work commitment, financial need and memberships or affiliations. The committee also reviewed applicants’ essays and letters of recommendation.

“One of the best ways we can serve our employees and our communities is to sup-port the continuing education of tomorrow’s leaders. Like their parents who work as US Airways’ crewmembers, mechanics, customer service representatives and fleet representa-tives, to name a few of the workgroups who have dependents receiving scholarships for the upcoming school year, we, too, are ex-tremely proud of this year’s recipients,” said Elise Eberwein, executive vice president of People, Communications and Public Affairs for US Airways.

Recipients of the 2012 US Airways Edu-cation Foundation scholarship will be at-tending universities all across the country, and include: 39 students from the Charlotte, NC area, 30 recipients from Phoenix, seven students from Philadelphia and four recipi-ents from Washington, DC.

These four cities serve as the airline’s hubs and focus city, where the majority of employ-ees live and work. Another 21 students who reside in 18 different cities across US Air-ways’ network also received scholarships. In addition, 38 of the 2012 recipients are repeat recipients.

The students receiving college scholar-ships have an average cumulative G.P.A. of 3.8 and their varied accomplishments include award-winning musicians, class valedictori-ans, All-State athletes and community vol-unteers.

Since 1992, the US Airways Education Foundation has awarded nearly $3.3 million in scholarships to dependents of US Airways employees as well as grants to nonprofit orga-nizations that support children’s educational programs. The Foundation is funded entirely by fundraising events and donations.
