    UM issue highlights systemic VA decline across all areas - will it get better?

    Just confirms to me they are not VA staff. Regional Airports contractors will do check in from the time the flight opens, at T-1 or thereabouts a number of them will close their check in and assume gate duties for the incoming flight .
