Most experts seem to think Tempe would lose the headquarters to Dallas if American and US Airways merged.
I honestly don't see any airline merging (willingly) with USAir. They haven't even completed the USAir/AWA merger yet. I think the other airlines are using them as leverage against the unions and other possible mergers.
