Default AWA fleet prior to neutral metal?

Can anyone share what the AWA fleet was prior to neutral metal?

How many airbuses and boeings were operated out of PHX?

Thanks.

This is very helpful.

When did West lose all of their 737s?

I assume I can less these numbers from total APC fleet data on US Airways for the East aircraft?

What about when the merger was first announced and up to a year after? What was the AWA fleet circa 2005-2006?

When did LAS close? Did this closure correlate with a fleet reduction?

2008, yes. 3 years after we were a single company. West went from almost 1800 pilots in 2007 (2 years after we were single carrier) and 144 aircraft to 1389 pilots and 120 aircraft. Again, 3 years after we were one company.

Higher costs due to merger raised seat per mile costs so that Vegas was no longer profitable.
